It is far too hot to work in my studio today, so I sit pondering the next project.

I so enjoyed working from live models for the monotypes and sumi-e paintings in this series titled OPEN BOOK. The six months preparing for this exhibit were truly delightful. I highly recommend any one working with monotype media to try creating with a live model. It is awesome! These images are only 10" x 11" on handmade Khadi paper from spiral bound sketch books. They were floated an inch off the wall with spiral edges in tack. The effect created a sensation of flipping through a private journal.
