I think this is the first large (36”x36”) square painting I have ever done. Most often I paint rectangles in the vertical position because most of my work is portraiture. However, I bought a few large canvases for almost free that someone had painted on in acrylic so I got to work a little larger than I usually do. I exaggerated the shapes around the head to give the illusion of a rectangular shape. The blues in the background represent shadows around the face. I accented the blues with naples yellow and white to create a misty feel like a surrealist painting might have. This painting is about dreams deep in our subconscious and how we exist with them. The price is $2600.00. Contact me to purchase.
