"Basic Series - A Square Peg and a Round Hole" - When I first started doing monotypes a few years ago, two basic forms began to repeat over and over - a square and a circle. Last year I began doing an altered book using these shapes to find a subject and a concept: a square peg and a round hole. The pages of the book (an old GW-BASIC 3.22 USERS GUIDE) quickly became warped and wrinkled so I stopped after doing the 20 pieces represented in this thumbnail. I love the way the tempera works with that paper though and I'm certain the series won't stop here. I'll begin posting some of these now and then.

I like how the thumbnail is a piece of art too! I like it, and understand your fasination to the forms.
Come across your blog this evening ... very unique style!!
The series look exceptionally good when placed together in a single piece.
I forgot to say that there is a sense of unity.
This piece looks very Kandinsky inspired. I LOVE doing altered books as well, it so fun, time-consuming but fun!
