The top image is of some new O'Keeffe pin variations in process made using a technique that we developed for the Shell series. We like the jumpy colors and textures.
They remind Steve of some new print/collages that he has been working on this summer. These are 15 x 88" each, made from scraps and trimmings from other projects. They have a "craft" quality to them--almost as if he was weaving rag rugs.
