India Ink on Tissue, collaged onto Acrylic Painting on Canvas

2002

This is a detail of a work I made when my wife was pregnant with our first child. Every week I drew a life-size drawing of the progress of our child's growth in utero on tissue and layered them one atop the other on the painting. This was an interesting juxtaposition of layers of the work in progress.
