For @thecosmickitty
Someone suggested I find out about buying that farm but it belongs to an artist who either converted an outbuilding or had a new building built out behind the old farmhouse to use as a studio. You can see it here from the side. It faces off toward a special landmark feature of the ridge called the Pinnacle. A genius spot up on that hill far from everything. Who wouldn’t be inspired?

"Rothko created a modulated ensemble of majestic paintings. The dark purplish tones have a soothing effect, yet they retain enough brilliance to stimulate the mind. The black surfaces invite the gaze to go beyond. The chapel is a place conducive to spiritual activity. We are cut off from the world and its suffocating multiplicity, able to wander in the infinite. Lacking the immensity of the desert, it is in the confines of a restricted place that we can embrace "the whole'. Here we are nowhere and everywhere; here we can find a blessed wholeness, a sense of unity."
- Dominique de Menil

While I have presented the black-and-white version of this picture before, I had not seen this color print until recently. As there are very few photos of Rothko with chapel pictures in a finished state, I'm glad to add this alternate scan. In this one you're able to see quite clearly, the studio supports keeping the pictures in place . .
It's said that Liberman, a friend of Rothko's, omitted photos of chapel works that had not been settled on, favoring pictures of this center triptych.
A little bit of a mystery to me here is the fact that this picture is dated 1967, but Rothko appears to be in the same photo session as the other photo of him with the chapel pictures dated 1965. In addition, the black-and-white version of this picture is dated 1965 in one book, leading me to believe that date is accurate. However, Lieberman did take pictures of the studio pulley system and skylight that are dated 1967. I would think the two pictures with Rothko appearing were from the same shoot, but it wouldn't be unthinkable, given Rothko's sartorial style, for him to be wearing the same suit in two pictures two years apart. This is something I'm still researching.

Finishing up a commission today, and while this probably doesn't represent all the pencils I'll have used up by the time it's done...
...I do not have big enough hands for any more 😬
My brain refuses to let me put them in the Pencil Graveyard Jar until a piece is finished tho ✏️🪦🫙
