Love #2. I hope it's a diptych.

I like the compression of the ornaments and your studio photos.

Thank you, Nancy. There are actually four of those pieces and I may hang them as diptychs or as a "quad-tych"(?).

Thank you, Ralf.

Tim---the top photo---how do you do that texture-design patterning? do you use a stencil of some sort?

You've been doing this for a while--usually the first layer(s) over which you then paint. Sometimes you use old wallpaper?

Hi, Bob,

Yes, In all of these large works on paper I've been using stencils that I've bought. Sometimes, I'll use the entire design and at others, i'll just use parts of them.

There have been other where I've collaged old wallpaper samples or other patterned paper and painted over them.
