Continuing the trip down memory lane, i thought i'd post one of the pieces i showed at ConFurence V (Jan 21-23, '94)... i brought five pieces, - four for sale. This was the one that wasn't for sale.

It was sort of how i felt about the balance of sorrow with the happiness - of time moving on...The frame-pattern behind her is an abstract skull and she's holding up this acorn of promise...And she's not worried about the natural cycle of the seasons - that's how life *lives*.

It's from around 1992, happily married after another crashed romance or two with a two year old boy, while working at Hanna-Barbera and living in Tarzana. It's been on my living room(s) wall(s) since then. i took it down a couple years ago to scan and saw it had faded quite badly (fitting in a way),

so the colours in this have been carefully restored. The pale outline is my attempt to represent the gold leaf ink, which was quite bright and metallic -

like foil.
