“In 1987, I started painting on small 4” x 6” hard canvases with a limited color palette,” said Lieb. “The small works were expressive and impressionistic, most notably of the Williamsburg Bank in Brooklyn, NY. Over the course of 25 years the work has transformed from the small canvases into larger pieces with layers of paper collage (recycling packing paper and tissues and newspaper clippings), with layers of acrylic paints and ink washes.”
