The second group of large
acrylics was the result of my finding out how to make at large scale
the imagery of my book of etchings,
Beulah Land, which had been
published by Crown Point Press in 1966. The images were built out of
the "corn sheller" I had found in a Sonoma County junk store, the
quinces that were hanging on the tree in my back yard, and memories of
the summers I had spent on a Sonoma County ranch when I was a child.
