Coming out of the Woodwork

While I wait for approval to start painting the ArtWorks/Children's Hospital pieces (deadline now extended to May)  here is what I'm working on .  Exploring new palettes, pushing my lean toward cubism and dwellings to something less whimsical (although once the gig begins I'll be all about whimsy!)    Kudos to Alt-J who provided the soundtrack for this painting and the title, too.

There now, there now.....there now.

I began this painting about journey, sorrow, comfort and community months ago, when my youngest daughter was trekking through Europe. I collaged bits and pieces of an old Parisian map to mark that time. Little did I know that in this new year, the city of Paris would be grieving , as they are now.
