“The paintings in this show have all been done since March of this year. I am continuing with my method of dragging through wet paint, letting it dry, painting over it and doing the whole process again. I have combined harder shapes with the more fluid work that I have been doing for the
past few years.

The drawing, I’ve Been Thinking About An Omlet, was done the week before my father died in March. His name was Amor, the infinitive, ‘to love’, in Latin. I have declined the verb.”

—Nancy Taplin, September 2007.
