James-Rieck-paintings-2013-5

The whole “holiday sweater” phenomenon passed me by (thank you Vogue magazine).   I have gotten a kick out of theme parties where they are part of the dress code.

Artist James Rieck gets warm and cozy with his intarsia in these wonderful paintings. Knit one, purl two.
