The Swimmer Series is a group of variations of Women Divers. This work is a Diptych and I have put the 2 pieces together. Each work is 40 x 26.5 inches.  They can be framed together or separately,  When put together, the height is 53 inches and the width is 40 inches. 
The images are from retro divers from the 1950's.  I cut them up to create graphic shapes.  The final outcome is bold and fun.  I love to work with Midcentury images from California and create new modern works out of them.  I am inspired by images from the 1950's-60's that reflect my Southern California background.  I hope you enjoy the series.
