This small pastel is a view of the D&R canal looking northwest towards Church Street at Trimmer in Titusville, NJ. The pastel above is a self-portrait of a moving tree.
Since I spent the weekend working on several self-portraits, I wanted to see again a video installation by Jennifer Steinkamp of a moving tree that goes through the four seasons. It's at MOCA in North Adams, MA. See http://jsteinkamp.com/ , especially the tree projection called Mike Kelly. Painting self-portraits is like trying to paint a moving tree. Everything keeps changing.
