  7. hi kim,

    i've always been fascinated by texture and the abstract patterns contained in things. i think this is reflected in my paintings, although i haven't painted these subjects directly, not in the sense of copying. but always, nature is my point of departure.

    good to see you....have a nice weekend, kim.

  10. Beth Ellen, I thought it looked like stone, too.

    And of course, abstraction allows us to interpret a subject in so many ways. :-)
