Welcome to a blog in which you will find examples of my work in two areas and comments on whatever topics come to mind.

Musing Miss


Oil on Canvas 9.5 x 12 in (24 x 30 cm)

One works from photos these days, photos or the memories of photos, one's own and others'.  Even with all the unemployment everywhere, the vocation of model is not in vogue; and the independent artist who is not famous is as likely to set eyes on one as on an albino snail, or even a hobgoblin.  What is lost  (besides a possibly pleasant relationship) in this dependence on a double two-dimensionality, I wonder? Or gained (apart from convenience, and less expense)?
