This is the 500th piece posted on the Work-a-Day page! <\/p>\n

It’s atypical for the WaD in that it is a large-ish oil on linen, but I think a good piece that I have not shown. It is what remains of a large (14′ long) multi-canvas painting that I began in my last studio. I stopped working on it to make the sprawling Soldiering frieze<\/a> with Anne Waldman, and by the time I was finished with that I had moved into a studio with much shorter walls. The practical aspects intervened and I painted over the other panels. <\/p>\n

The original River painting was a nocturnal scene of many things \u2013 a dressed dining table, this baby, a variety of domestic objects \u2013\u00a0floating serenely down a river. It had something to do with ancestry, Mississippi, who knows what all. I’m sure I will return to the image. In the meantime, I think the River Baby is content to float solo.<\/p>\n

There’s an election going on, and tomorrow’s Work-a-Day will be a drawing of whatever is the photograph on the front page of the New York Times…<\/p>\n
