This painting opens the colour reproductions in the 2008 Joan Murray book. The artist writes about the painting as follows: "In my stable of working formats, some are untested and new and some have been put to work many times. The battle tested formats develop in unpredictable ways, the title of this painting alludes to my desire to ‘make note’ of aspects of the format which have developed and may lead to new projects."
