"Couple's Therapy"

9 x 12"
oil on masonite

It's my observation that many people who look at Willem de Kooning's work in a museum feel like they have to analyze it out loud - often I eavesdrop, maybe I'll learn something. Sometimes I paint artists' works in my own paintings hoping to understand them a little more in-depth or just because it's a fun experience. With de Kooning, it's a little bit of both.

Wow, Karin...quite an accomplishment. Love it as usual. Interesting thread over at Wet Canvas about the best living artists. I threw your name in the pot and got some "right ons". Hope you are well!

It always amazes me how you can paint such a great representation in such a tiny scale.
