OVAL

Andrew Hahn has a stack of wood ovals in his studio, his preferred format for ambient painting support. One night, we painted a few, this is one of them. Whip whap, the collaboration was the way I like it: alternating swings at the target, each of us keying on what the other has introduced, each of us flinging the painting into a new direction in turns.

This was made last late winter/early spring, a moment where, with Andrew's help, I found another door to representation unlocked, the door knob turned quite easily in my hand.

Oh, hello Vincent!
