painted these women straight onto the linen, the way I paint everything else — quickly, wet, letting the wave lines and the sun find their own place. They’re my bathers, the same figures that turn up in my canvases, but here they live on something you switch on at dusk.
That’s the part I love. Unlit, it’s a drawing on cloth. Lit, the linen glows and the paint goes half-transparent, so the figures seem to float in warm water. The lamp does half the painting.
