Many of you will recognize this painting as the companion to "Papillon" offered on September 4.
When planning a piece, I will often work in a series. Painting two or more of a subject in the same size and/or palette a wonderful exercise for keeping my drawing, color mixing, and paint application consistent.

Collectors enjoy the series I create because it allows them to create groupings of artwork on their walls and carry a color or theme throughout a room or home. A pair of two paintings, similiar in framing and subject are a quick and easy decorating solution. "Duets" are very versatile and will easily decorate a variety of wall spaces: side by side over a dining room buffet, stacked one above the other on a narrow wall, above a powder room commode or even on different walls in the same room.

Collecting groupings of art can immediately add interest to any room. Adding to a grouping or reconfiguring the arrangement of pieces on the wall or breaking up a grouping can be a quick way to give a room a new look.
