Study: Entering

Here is a drawing study for the painting "Entering": seven separate panels that will be framed together (the bottom left oil panel is posted below).

I'm leaving on Saturday for a two week painting retreat at the wonderful Vermont Studio Center, where I'm hoping to make good progress on my "Elements of Place" series for the Art of Action, and also get back to work on the multi-panel painting "Entering" I began there last year.

Here's one panel of a larger piece I'm working on that's about going into a space--in this image, an entering through dark into distance.
