Small Works dilemma


I'm getting ready for the many 
"Small Works" shows coming up.

"Mom and Kid"
6 x 6 
(2" gallery wrapped canvas, unframed) 

These shows somehow invite 
"cookie-cutter-cranked-out-pieces"
that are "painted to sell".
I really try not to do that.  

I'd rather use the opportunity for further exploration!

  2. This piece is brief and packs a big punch. The notan is successful, and the orange/red underpainting (outlines) are electrifying.

  3. I love Brooks' quote...will miss seeing his work.
