Welcome

This is The Committee (24" x 48"). They represent those little voices in our heads that challenge and criticize and push us to do better. They can be awfully pushy, in fact, and judgmental to boot. But useful.

- 30 -

o/c 41x44

Historically, the symbol - 30 - was used by journalists to signal the end
of their stories, so I thought that was a good place to begin this blog.
(A curious thing that blogs end where they begin.)
- 30 - evolved as a meditation on color and texture, nine 5x7 canvases
that flowed one to the next. Well, that didn't feel quite right. The work
grew to 12 panels, then 16, on to 25, and, ultimately, 30. Perfect.
Who said painters don't know when to stop?
This work was accepted in the Toledo Area Artist's Exhibition several years ago.
It now hangs in my dining room.
