Oh my, I am LOVING that bottom painting, Paul! Is that a work in progress still? Those yellow shapes are calling to me. Wonderful.

Surprising departure in your imagery, Paul!

I'm probably too close to the work. I doesn't seem like such a departure to me.
Love both of these... particularly the "open" wood space in the blue, green and orange work. Very fine!
