I really, really like this one and pot study 2!!! The shadows, the texture, the arresting composition---much more interesting than Morandi, to my eye. These have the same profoundly quirky and wonderfully oblique qualities of your memory paintings.
I'm absolutely nuts about your pot studies and have been thinking about them since I first saw them a week or so ago. I'm sorry I didn't leave a comment the first time. I'm having such a hard time getting myself to the computer. Meanwhile, I brought the blanket section and your address to work to mail them and things got so crazy that I didn't get a chance and then accidentally left them at work so couldn't do it this weekend either. Tomorrow I'm back at work and will get it in the mail!
Inspired by Neil Curtis in his book, 'The Memory Book', my memory paintings catch impressions and moments from my first ten years, in St Andrews, Scotland in the 60's. They are all 12 x 9 cm, mostly pen and watercolour, on Arches HP. They are now published in an 8" x 10" book through Blurb.

Wow - what a wonderful composition! I love this one.
Love this composition and the different looks you've created with the pencil strokes.
beautiful job...great composition
You have been busy and such wonderful detail, your pots are such fun. Have a lovely time in Orange, catch up when I get back.

Keep up the great work--it's very inspiring!
Your shadows are scary! I always appreciate the way you often cut off shapes like in some Japanese woodcuts. It works well here.

This one is very very dramatic. Fantastic.
