The R.C. Gorman Best Friends artist placard tile carries the artist’s joyful group portrait — four women standing side by side in warm red-orange, turquoise, purple-cream, and peach dresses, their companionship the whole subject of the picture. The tile format presents the printed design in a compact decorative piece suited to shelves, walls, and curated groupings of Southwest art.
As gallery merchandise, the placard tile reproduces Gorman’s imagery on a decorative object rather than serving as an original artwork. It makes an easy gift for collectors of R.C. Gorman collectibles and fans of Southwestern art, and it pairs naturally with the Best Friends mug and puzzle in the same design.
