- The menu separates “Drawing On The Run” (2010–2022) from “The Ladies of the Cha Cha Collection” (2022–2026).
Field notes
The menu divides the work into named series and archives, including “Archive: Black and White” and “Archive: Color.” A visible caption records “Can Tommy Come Out and Play Tonight” as a 2014 work from “On Pike and Nowhere.” The page description says Barnes draws and paints live in Capitol Hill bars and clubs, and while traveling; the collection dates give readers a rough chronology for navigating that work.
