June 2021 we were informed that our studio building lease would not be renewed. This was a great blow to all 11 of us. I was there for 35 years! I’ve been working at a table in my apartment since I moved. Here are five small, mostly white paintings about the space and how it feels to lose it. Three small works are of a woman in a red dress in different states of being: contemplation, withstanding a mighty wind, and as a cave painter making her mark. The last and most recent work is a landscape that (almost) jumped up and painted itself.
