Fields of Gold

image

This is my first large canvas. I have done other large pieces before but for this one I used a base material that reminded me of feed bags. It presented some obstacles. Seems like a success with mixed media layers. The *Fields of Gold* collection began as reflection of the field across the road from the family farm & has transformed into analysis of the general population’s disconnect of healthy food production.

today’s favorite tool… the square!

Today I created frames for the large sample pieces done for the restaurant installation. The *square* is the best tool in the universe. It is pretty difficult to make the frames out of 100 year old wood. It is sensitive to say the least. Shipping out tomorrow to NYC!
