story behind the painting
I want to share a short story how this painting was created, well I wanted to paint some poppies-my favorite flowers. so I did but the outcome was not good enough to my satisfaction, so I have decided to destroy the painting by painting something else on top of it. (it’s an old practice)
When I was cleaning my storage I found a postcards with face of a women, I don’t know her, but it was interesting face so I decide to use it as a inspiration. So here are the results. It is important (to me at least) that if something can’t be fix is best to reuse it/re-design or simply destroy , and then usually amazing things happens.
I am not sure about the title yet, cos in my head it was something about dreams, about being and not being, like in a sleep -our bodies are on earth, but where are we? Then I realized that this painting has so much more potential for different interpretations, and I don’t want to “lock it” in one dimension.
