In the studio. Chapel Hill, NC

The oil painting in the center of this image is 2 feet high by 4 feet wide. This is a painting of a friend I met a little over two years ago. Handsome fella, eh? He also paints portraits.

Blanket in Tree for Friends

I'd been printing images of small paintings on blankets.  I decided to make one especially for the MLK & Estes rush hour crowd in Chapel Hill.  I wanted people to call me.  That's as far as my plan got.  I thought that there was a good chance that it would be removed.  It stayed up for a little over a week.  I only hope that the person that took it down didn't throw it away.  It'd been outdoors in the rain, in the trees, surrounded by poison ivy; but it could be cleaned and used.
