These are small acrylic paintings on 9 x 11 pieces of paper executed when I was in bed at my parents' house recuperating from a fractured femur bone. The window theme is a recurrent one employed by Renaissance painters and the Romantics (as seen in the current Met show), but I am thinking also of Matisse here as well. In a way, these pictures are trials for the larger oil paintings I'm made at Yaddo in 2011.
