Iso-LACE-tion: A Thirty Day Painting Project

For the coming weeks, or months, or longer (who knows?), I will be working on a new series of paintings. Most will be modelli on copper, gold leaf, linen, or panels in sizes 6×6, 5×7, or 8×6, but there could be some a little larger also. The one commonality is each will have lace of some fashion in the composition.
