Small Works at SOHO20Chelsea

I was invited by my artist friend, Elizabeth Bisbing, [ http://ebisbing.com ] to enter a painting into the "Small Works" show at the SOHO20Chelsea gallery, of which she is a member.


Blue Fin XVIII
Oil on board 11" x 12"

The following is a quote, which I recently came across in the New York Times in an article by Michael Kimmelman, that had resonance:

The EXHIBIT:

You are, of course, welcome to stop by if you are in New York.
