It's the autumn of 2020, and I am smack in the middle of a substantial series of watercolors on paper. What I call it is simply experimenting
.
A year ago… the world seemed to be going to hell in a handbasket… . It was
clearly time for something optimistic, perhaps even something hauntingly beautiful!
"Beyond", 20 x 15 in. (51 x 38 cm),
watercolor stick, pastel, watercolor on paper, 2020.
It had been a few years since the last time I worked on paper consistently.
For some reason, this was the right time for it. And then this series ended just as suddenly as it began, early the following year -- with a delicate, color

I hope you enjoy them as much as I did seeing them emerge.
