Pretty: that's a ridiculous name for art, but this piece is so pastel and ruffle-y that it's the only title I could think of. I loved making this; I worked intuitively, starting with chiffon strips that I tore rather absent-mindedly and placed here and there. Spotting paint left on a palette, I rubbed some white silk in it, with happy results. C says this reminds him of Beach Walk, and I guess I am haunted by the ocean.
