Works by N.W. Rommel


The summer is drawing to a close. A return to school is forefront in our minds. Next week my son and I begin the almost two thousand mile drive to Colorado so N.W. can have his car on campus. We researched shipping the car, but all in all decided, "why not?" I have the time and precious time it will be. How often do you have your almost twenty year old to yourself for 4 days? Not often. I am posting some of his artwork. We share this art-thing. He has spent some time in my studio this summer working on a variety of projects, experimenting with different techniques and materials. I am very proud of his accomplishments.

  1. Beth, Will's works are moving and powerful in his exploration of containment vs movement and transformation. I had no idea he was working alongside you. You, too, have a cause to be proud of yourself for nurturing such an artist and son.

  2. Thank you Hannah. I am a very lucky woman to have the family I have. I think you and I talked about our good fortune on the phone. We are blessed.

  4. He showed me his notebook while he was up here--really really really cool stuff. I told him to go through the Griffin and Sabine books--so similar.
