Gimmel Machine is part of the Dan collection. It's 20 x 16, oil and paper on linen.

That's cool. Are you stitching or gluing the paper to the linen?

What is Dan up to now? This is so intriguing! The linen makes for a beautiful, textural background.

Interesting combination of materials. I like how you've balanced it.

Thank you Wayne, Donna, sno, Bongo, and JennieJo! <--all around!

Wayne: in this piece, the paper is glued with a clear polymer, then painted over with oils.
Donna: Dan has been making a comeback because he'll be featured in my next show about healing. I agree about the textured linen. It's one of my favorite surfaces to use.
Bongo: The Gimmel Machine makes money, and it is also what Dan was born out of. (Just something I kinda made up.)

And wasn't Dan's first word "yellow?" His legend continues...

A fun and colorful piece. I'm so happy to see more Dan! The linen is just gorgeous.

Thank you Terri! It makes me so happy that Dan makes you happy! That's what he's for.
