<p>Marcia Hafif on ROMAN PAINTINGS<br />
"Being invited to show paintings in Rome, Italy, I recalled the colors of architecture in that city where I once lived. This series began with four vertical canvases that became Roman Painting I using colors traditionally those for representing flesh. Other works in the series were single or with multiple parts, the canvases vertical, the strokes as well, and again I was working all over the entire canvas several times."</p>
