Japan Faces
I have just returned from a two week fellowship at an art retreat, in southern France. While there I painted out of doors, 'en plein aire', in the exquisite country side, but what I am sharing here are some monoprints I created that were inspired by imagery from my trip to Japan back in November. It may seem odd that these images were created in southern France, but I was so charged up and inspired while there that these dormant images came forth from my unconscious.

This first piece is titled "Number One"
