I went to see Marie Vickerilla's paintings last week at the Simon Gallery in Morristown, NJ. I have known Marie since 1981 when we were studio neighbors at Bard in their brand new MFA program. We were fast friends and have been ever since. It a treat to see her work out in the world. These new paintings are masterful, humorous and complex.
