At some point I saw that in every successful painting I had done there was some very black BLACK and some very white WHITE. I was commissioned to do a Crow painting and went on to do a series. Whenever I notice crows, it always seems to be a cloudy day, which introduces GREY into the picture. Here quite literally.

In 1973 or so, there appeared briefly a convention in textbooks to have the caption of an image appear not underneath, but in a Bar that stuck out like a dock, into the interior of the image or photograph itself. The first time I was having fun imitatng the style of layout, but I kept wanting to add the "bar". In this show, this is the first example.
