This year I’ll be one of the artists donating a piece to the CPSA silent auction at the 16th Annual International Exhibition in Seattle. Since “Cascade” will appear in the exhibition, I thought it would be fun to use one of the other poses from the session for the donated piece. There are size constraints on the auction pieces, so this is smaller than I usually work on Colourfix:

My comments: Interlude is the only picture in the Blue Series that wasn’t done on blue paper – it was done on brown Colourfix. I drew this when Kiersten and I were still living in different cities, and could only see each other on the weekends. Interlude refers to that time between being together, when your thoughts are wandering to the other person, and the days left until you reunite.
