Thom O’Connor has focused on the portrait in his early career. We are fortunate to have two new additions — “The Witch” and “GB” — bringing the total to fourteen (four individual and a suite of ten). All are representative of his work in the 1960s. They make an interesting comparison with the similar etchings of artist Robert Marx.
