Christmas finally came for this older favorite from the first days of my pastel use. I think it's one of the first pieces I investigated the bare canvas, along with darkening the ground with coffee...Also...it has to be one of the first in a long time to deal with the human form as, for a long period of time there, I avoided the subject altogether.
I enjoy the playfulness of the image...the distortion of symbolism....the confusion of connecting the two.......Is the piece about someone who is facing a real life-changing crisis, or are there delusions of grandeur, just hoping for something big to change?
