, "The Wave"
2007, oil, 72 x 30, on old door
Duplicate of Alexander
Harrison's painting at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art, below. Side-by-side
it's quite remarkable how amateurish mine looks even with the reduced original.
At the museum, the Harrison piece is extraordinary for its sense of photo-realistic
illusion of a natural occurrence that is almost abstract in itself.
