The wonderful painter Joanne Tarlin has nominated me for a “Facebook Challenge.” Because of my inhibition about posting my work on most social media platforms, I’ll post them here on this blog. I’ll plan to post 10 images here (hopefully every day or so) and post the links on social media.
I often try to work art historical references into my work. In addition, with the pandemic Sasha and I’s annual Martha’s Vineyard vacation was cancel, or rather postponed.
Here is my Eleanor at Long Point Beach, 2019.
