"Chinese Silk II",17 x 16",watercolor, 2002, framed ($1,000.00 U.S. dollars)

It only took 16 years to do the second in the Chinese Silk series. Unfortunately, other things had priority
but now I can accomplish my goals! This was one of the chinese silk pieces given to my mother (circa WWII)
by an admirer years ago. The first Chinese Silk I featured the other silk piece.
Red was always a challenge in getting the vibrance of the color. I felt I had succeeded here and the easy flow
of the watercolor washes on the skin pleased me very much.
This series featured the nude almost as a design rather than a figure painting in my mind.
