Yes indeed...here's another oldy-goody. Some criticism (that I took to heart way too much) about this one is that it is too figurative. That is, it is just a figure study. I thought that was too true at first and that made me doubt my own feelings about this piece. Stripped away my confidence I guess. I wanted it to be vulnerable, but threatening too. Maybe a looming stare...after having it around the studio for quite a while I have stopped being shy about it. I like it a lot...I really enjoy the kind of strange, quiet intensity it posesses. The blue is super-intense and since the piece is over 6 feet tall, it has a real and dynamic presence to me...
