Some Spring Paintings







Recently the Millbrook, Ontario printmaker, George Raab gave my some various sizes of Arches paper that he couldn't use for his large prints, and I'm really enjoying painting on the unprimed surface; it's very intimate and responsive. In some cases a thin wash goes in as an undercoat, and sometimes a last stage of pencil work is used to help tie things together. The little paintings seem to be getting a bit bigger...yikes!....but still not bigger than 11 x 15 inches. Thank you, George!
