Egg Tempera:
Connecticut 
Summer, 1978, Nils #
44. Egg tempera on panel after a photograph from National
Geographic Magazine September 1977. 5 1/4" x 9
1/4" ( 13.5 cm x 23.5 cm)
My love affair with egg tempera goes back to
my first experiments with it for the Nils multimedia project in
1978. I was in love with thalo
blue at that time and used it extensively for my shadows.
It this panel it creates a nice vibration of complimentary
colors.
