Resting: Chromatic Woman
The collection’s namesake and anchor — a study in deep tone and repose, the figure carried by emerald, vermilion, and gold against a patterned ground.
Currently on View · The Permanent Collection
The Resting Women
A series in oil on the same human gesture — a woman at rest — carried across cultures and rendered in saturated, sculptural color. The sequence is anchored by its namesake, Chromatic Woman, and reaches outward from there. Each canvas measures 48 × 60 inches.

Resting Woman — Sakura Reverie
Rest told through a Japanese visual vocabulary — cresting wave, cherry blossom, and the warm fall of a kimono.
III
Calvin Jefferson
Resting American Indian
The series at its widest reach — feathers, turquoise, and a distant encampment framing a single, quiet moment of stillness.
More works join the collection as they are photographed to museum standard — the series is conceived to grow into a full survey of the figure in repose.

Curatorial Roadmap
Digital Exhibition Strategy
The virtual museum is not a brochure — it is the validating infrastructure that precedes physical institutional recognition. It is built to grow toward, not assert, blue-chip standing.
IEstablish
Catalogue & Capture
Museum-grade photography of every painting populates the gallery rooms. Each work gains a placard, dimensions, and provenance. The museum becomes the single authoritative reference for the collection.
IIValidate
The Curator's Voice
An independent curator or art historian contributes a catalogue essay, replacing placeholder placards. Third-party scholarship is what converts a website into an institution in the eyes of the field.
IIIExhibit
Rotating Online Exhibitions
Themed digital shows with limited runs and invitations create event and scarcity. Each exhibition seeds press, mailing-list growth, and a record of curatorial activity.
IVBridge
From Screen to Wall
The digital exhibition history becomes evidence in proposals to physical museums, university galleries, and corporate collections — and a companion piece to the documentary and the published memoir.
VConsolidate
The Standing Collection
A documented exhibition record, provenance trail, and scholarly writing form the credible foundation from which valuation conversations can responsibly begin.
