still life with refugees stretched today / / by Philip Tarlow

still life with refugees, 42x42” oil and collage on linen as it looked after i streched it today

2:34 PM: today i was in the mood to stretch still life with refugees, which as been tacked to my wall since i completed it on may 14. it looks so much better, it makes me want to stretch the others. i’ll have to wait on the 24x28” recent ones, because the stretcher bars i got were too thin & fragile and cracked when i applied any pressure. so i sent photos to blick, where i bought them and asked for a refund so i could get sturdier ones.
