SOFAS REMEMBERED

Speaking of sofas: back in the 1960s-70s I painted four small (26 x 30cms. 10 x 12 inches) pictures called The Sofa Series. I was reminded of those and of Goya's famous Maja Desnuda and Maja Vestida which, along with life, were my inspiration for that series.

The first two below are in a private collection. I still have the last two and the etching. Photos are not good but you can come and see the actual works if interested.

Sofa Series 1: Maya Clothed. NdA 1965.

Sofa Series 2: Maya Nude. NdA 1966

Sofa Series 3: Paternal. NdA 1966

Sofa Series 4: Maternal. NdA 1966

The Sofa. Etching A/P 1. NdA 1970. Image size: 27.5cm x 22cm (11 x 9 inches) Sheet size: 42 x 57cm (22.5 x 16.5 inches)
