Jim, the new work has prompted return visits, very nice, and with each visit I'm reminded that these all beg close looking, probably at the real deals, especially the photo-paint pieces which are especially elusive conceptually and technically (very Dutch). The threshold pieces are intricate marriages of your twin loves for contemporary landscape and Bellini's Renaissance and beg the same close scrutiny since the spaces seem finely tuned, even if they are unfinished. Beautiful light all around, and the four seasons pieces slow everything down for that consideration of light to soak in. I like the threshold idea applied to the photo-paint pieces as well that are not just spatial thresholds, but also media thresholds as well, both conceptually rich. Keep that freak flag flying. On clear days I can see it from Virginia.








I've thrown in some triptych Texas-Xmas stuff. Some better than others, or just different. I'm working on some more over&unders, many with a fire-water split. That later, this for now...
