My friend Ellen — who I hadn't seen for a long time — visited the studio, chose some of these colors, and helped paint the first layer. We painted outside, next to the Piscataquog River with the canvas lying flat on a table. We talked about our lives. The experience felt reminiscent of a quilting bee.  

     The title -- "A Woman's Work" is a bit tongue in cheek since the checkered pattern isn't finished. And it never will be.
