Fine line Pens on Yupo Paper
h: 42 w: 30 d: 1 (cms).
I was working on this piece a more traditional pose and lighting for a portrait and my shoulders were facing us a lot more and I was wearing a t-shirt, I found that the neck line was doing nothing for the face, and catching to much light, so while looking through a book of one of my favourite artists ie Rembrandt I saw one of his many amazing Portraits and it struck me straight away how to make this Portrait of mine work.... I just borrow his jacket put my shoulders more side on and I like to think it works. Hope you do to. I have been thinking about everything being in a state of flux, and entropy, these thoughts of us in the general scheme of things. It is not from a depressing point of view but a deep appreciation of our moment in time, the not tomorrow but the appreciation of the right now. Memento Mori This piece could be called A Portrait of Living Through Entropy.... There is beauty in many ways in the transient nature of our time on this earth.
