As part of his series "In Process," Paul Behnke posts a photo blog documenting the development of a new painting by Valerie Brennan.

As noted in the press release for her recent exhibition No Chance of Rain at Giampietro Gallery, New Haven: "For Brennan every panel is an adventure in paint. The images are often the result of a struggle between the artist and her materials. Her work is rooted in the physical act of painting itself, exploring its natural process."
