They all look homeless

Those paintings are spot on.
Life is not always pretty...

"I have worked at Dunkin Donuts for several years and have encountered many types of people. People who endure adversity, who bring others together, who work long hours, have aspirations, unique interests and over-all have colorful lives that many people just don't see or know about. My paintings are meant to capture these moments, those golden seconds when the veil that we all wear comes down and our true selves are revealed. It's not always pretty or romanticized, these people are very real and deal with real circumstances. I prefer to depict them as close to the truth as possible. These are The Regulars of Dunkin Donuts."
I was being a wise ass

It was not directed at the artist or the paintings, which I think are quite good. I was just making fun of the stereotype of Dunkins having homeless people hanging out there.
I actually prefer her earlier work
