Thomasin--

Really fine! Love the atmosphere of it...

Is your technique more additive (piling on) or subtractive (scraping off)? These remind me of abstracts a local guy here paints, with a beautifully pearly and dense surface. When he's done with a piece, there's more paint on the floor than the painting, the surface having been heavily scraped between each layer. Each painting looks as if it weighs a ton, but there's no other way for him to get that accumulated result. Your (oil) paintings have a similar feeling of material "weight."

Can you describe?
