"A Perfect Whole"

Acrylic and Collage on wood panel Black Satin wood frame 12x12 inches Title taken from a phrase in a May 2026 sonnet of mine: "Creation moving towards a perfect whole....." Made almost entirely from my own painted and stencilled papers. In this work I learned how to build a landscape piece by piece -- starting in the upper right-hand corner -- and experiencing what it meant to have the painting tell me what was needed next! It incorporates a bit of collage made from colored prints of previous works -- and I love the knowledge that each piece of art may contribute to the next.
