Composition 8" x 10" Oil on Canvas

Sometimes referred to simply as "The Girl", this one and I have checkered past together. It accumulated debris in an old apartment. Rather than attempt to fix it, I lacquered the debris into the painting itself, wanting to preserve the wear and tear. One gallery owner I dealt with actually discarded the painting for some reason. I found it among a pile of used canvases in back of the gallery sometime later. This little painting became important to me, particularly in the abuses it survived.
