The Beatles' Paul McCartney and John Lennon stand united at a backstage news press conference, wiping away any doubts about their everlasting bond that continues to inspire generations. A barmaid from London Types delicately wipes her hands clean after serving patrons with grace and charm. Her hand-coloured woodcut illustration captures both her strength and gentleness in this timeless profession. In a comical postcard scene from the 20th century, a man becomes an unwitting target for pigeons at a football match. With each flap of wings overhead, he desperately tries to wipe off unwanted surprises - an amusing reminder that life can throw unexpected challenges our way. A dressed Foxhound at His Country Manor stands regally amidst nature's beauty. As he trots across his estate, his paws gracefully wipe away traces of dirt on the path - symbolizing how even in grandeur we must remain grounded. A housewife diligently cleans her kitchen sink in 1931. With every swipe she takes using her trusty screen print cloth, she not only removes physical grime but also wipes away worries to create a haven for herself and loved ones. Coavinses captured in pen & ink with watercolor on paper transports us back to the roaring 1920s. This whimsical artwork depicts mischievous characters who use humor as their weapon against societal norms - reminding us that sometimes laughter is the best way to wipe away conformity.
