"Ruins II" is 24" X 24", slightly larger than the original "Ruins".  It incorporates images from some of the same structures as "Ruins", but mostly different views.  I include it in the Celebration Series for the same reason cited in my earlier post, because it contains the streamers and ribbon-like patterns that symbolize that series.  While I really enjoy the free-form structure of the Ruins pieces, I have been working on a separate series that I am expanding with additional pieces.  I have not yet shown them anywhere, but have committed them to exhibits this year, hence I am not posting photos of any of them as yet.  I may post a detail of one of them in an upcoming post to provide a flavor for the color and theme of that series. Just a hint:  the colors are those that I see in the Santa Ynez Valley vineyards at harvest time.
