Roses are Red

RP 12-1, 2012, acrylic on canvas over panel, 60 cm (23 3/4 inches)

My valentine found this image of a human heart, some kind of scientific Illustration, pretty as a picture. It’s how I think about my little round painting RP 12-1. My heart goes out!

I dreamed I found a red ruby (2780014), Jonathan Borofsky, lithograph.

It’s also a red ruby. I love Jonathan Borofsky’s rubies, the way he draws them and the idea of them. The lit sculptures with songs in that huge installation he made at the Temporary Contemporary. It was so much fun to be in that space and time. But I digress.

RP 12-1 is part of an ongoing exhibition of paintings, drawings, and prints at LO-FI WINES, 448 “B” Bell Street, Los Alamos, CA 93440. They make nice valentines. 805-344-0179 Open Thursday – Sunday.

Happy Valentine’s Day. Hooray for see-through red!
