The Gallery has a new image-centric, content rich website. We started publishing supersize pan/zooms of our paintings. Let us know how you like what you see. They look best on a Mac in Firefox or IE on Windows. Unlike an Evel Knievel ride you can try this at home.
Van Gogh, Roses

20,244 x 15,462 pixels
Whistler, The White Girl

21,649 x 11,327 pixels
van Eyck, The Annunciation

All best,
