Untitled /Leah and Rachel /Mary and Mary Magdalene (1993)
Until yesterday, this painting has always been untitled. Sometime after 1997 when a friend committed suicide, I traded it for several sessions of Gestalt therapy. Yesterday when I looked at it again, I thought it might be called "Leah and Rachel," after the wives of Jacob from Genesis. Today, it occurred to me that it might be "Mary and Mary Magdalene." As time goes by, I may see something else in this painting.

Untitled (1991 to 1993)
At one time, I considered framing today's painting together in one frame with three previous paintings from the Calendar Series. The three images together expressed chaos. My thoughts were on the aftermath of the Vietnam War and the Gulf War. I just noticed the number "41" near the top of the right border, which must mean that this painting was started in 1991 when I was 41 years old and completed in 1993.
