Richard Learoyd


...so I am in love with the work of Richard Learoyd. A friend game me a print and I just happened to have purchased this lovely vintage frame at a local church sale...  a perfect combo!


I've had this of Jasmijn on my phone since I saw it a couple years ago at the Fraenkel Gallery
An image that I think is now at SFMoma...
