Fragments of March: Chance of Snow
mixed media/paper 22" x 30"

My studio warm ups progressed from inexpensive drawing paper to full sheets of 300 lb cold press paper.  On this heavier weight paper I played with making marks in India ink, graphite, charcoal, crayon and acrylic - all in the rich dark color of black.  The titles bear witness to this transitional month hovering in winter daring not to cross over to spring.

I worked on the floor - a welcome change from standing at the easel.  The paper gets rotated several times as I paint so there is no standard orientation.

As of Saturday these four are now at Powers Gallery in Acton, MA.

They compliment my large panels with this one waiting patiently on the easel.
