Parallel Play

Dave and I often enjoy what I think of as parallel play when we're both at home. We have a strong sense of each other's presence and a happy sense of companionship as we pursue various tasks and pursuits independently of each other.

Suddenly this morning, I remembered I could work on more than one painting at the same time.

Parallel play!

Two paintings with a strong sense of each other's presence and a happy sense of companionship as they each develop independently of each other.

I set my black & white off to the side, parallel to my easel. Started in with some Naples yellow on a square of canvas paper and went from there.
