“The Artist and the Model", 2008-2010, oil/wood, 26"-29.5". For Joan Miro. When I was around fourteen years old, I had the great honor and joy to visit the home of one of the original collectors of Miro’s “Birth Of The World” now in MoMA. I went with my brother and parents to the collector’s home in the South of France, Cagnes sur Mer.  Something that still stays with me until today.
