New Work in Progress: 12 x 12 x 12 November 2026


The inspiration for my 12 x 12 x 12 November 2026 is from the Fences and Nests series of paintings I created in 2012. They have monoprinted textures of orange construction fences with skins of nest-like circles with thread scraps. The first photo shows the already stitched and stiffened fabric with a threads skin sitting temporarily on top, waiting for me to cut the ovals (or "holes" from the construction fence) out to collage on the fabric. The second photo shows the 12" x 12" template I use to mark the size before I trim it down which is helpful in placing the nest before cutting into it and glueing it down.
