Salley Mavor tells us a bit about the evolution of her portrayal of boys in dimensional applique. Fascinating as always. And while she seems to feel her later portraits capture more of the liveliness of little boys, one detail in this 1985 work plucks hard at my heartstrings: The little guy is holding just two of Daddy’s fingers. Memories! See a whole series of Salley’s charming boys at her blog post.
