I spent the whole day painting indoors. There were plenty starts I wiped out. Near the end of the day the shapes in this one just emerged by themselves. When I realized that this is what it wanted to be, I went with it, and really like the quiet, yet slightly disturbing tone. There is the tension of a character seeking solitude in an ambiguous setting.
This is Today's Keeper 2012
I feel like I should tread lightly with this painting, but I really think it is a self-portrait. I recently lost a loved one. And it has that type of slightly mournful quality.
