Over the years I have painted interiors in a fairly conventional way; by using wide perspectives, and also by painting individual objects and juxtaposing them with other individual paintings to recreate a scene but each one of these pieces had to be at real scale to re-create the feeling of an interior. The idea behind this painting is to make pictures of interiors out of many pieces. The first multiple piece painting I did was in 1987, and that was only 3 pieces however it was an idea I never really developed, but now that I have resurrected the idea of using multiple pieces in order to make a more complete story of the interior.
