Color Field Painting....

Well Maybe....

The holidays took their toll....  not much studio time, but today is a different day.  Back to working on this canvas which originally was a color field inspired work, but the addition of form has taken it far afield....

This is Delores Patencio, famous basket weaver who lived and worked in the Coachella Valley in the early 20th century. This week is also the beginning of the Palm Springs International Film Festival and it is interesting that a photo of Delores Patencio is shown at the beginning of each feature as part of the sponsorship by the Agua Caliente Indians.

Check back and watch the progress on this painting and learn more about this woman, Delores Patencio.
