85. Drabble: Bare NY in Ink
Title: "Bare NY in Ink"
Author: itwaslovetome
Theme: Colors
Notes: grayskyblue is a great beta. Justin’s POV.

When it comes down to it, everyone loves art that they don’t understand, which is why "Bare NY in Ink" is my masterpiece. People love to speculate about why it – a big, green abstract on a board, cut up and rearranged – seems to have little to do with New York. Or ink, for that matter.

And I love it because to me, each shade means something: Apple Green… Corvette Green… Because I knew how all the pieces really fit together. And because I am always rearranging the letters of the title back into what they really spell out: Brian Kinney.
