This painting started off as a head on an 11in x 17in piece of paper and grew into this. The night before the Art Walk which is where I unveiled it, I was sanding the wrinkles off the surface when lightning struck across the street from my house. When the lights came back on the wrinkles had left grooves in the paint that looked like lightning. I thought it was fate so I left them and varnished it. I’m posting this again because it’s changed.
Holy crap I love this work! I can't even go into detail or reason now, maybe after I stare at it a bit, but it was like a visual smack upside the head. FAB!
