This painting was finished earlier this week and is based on several drawings I made last August. The five central figures create a circular motion within the overall square and hopefully give the picture a quiet stability, while a lot of triangular geometries give a contrasting energy.
The composition originally began with just the two women in the foreground, but as the image evolved, more figures appeared. The two figures in the upper corners arrived last, one of which I changed while painting.  |

Everyone talking; no one communicating. The only one without a phone sits ignored-a commentary on our times.
ReplyDeleteAll of which reminds me we should talk.
