Oil Paintings on Glass – Michael Hurley

Seated Woman – 25” x 20” pastel and chalk on paper by Michael Hurley

I was working a lot on glass at this time. Mostly oil on glass. A few people like Robert Ritchie and myself had been independently working on glass. I used it as a canvas mostly because I was living in the Joe Scully building down on 7th and Jefferson. There were old windows all over the interior of the place. It was a pretty good supply of these glass canvases.  I eventually stopped working on this after a lot of breakage when moving pieces between shows. This show also included some works that were chalk and pastel on paper.
