Speak, was done in March of 2019. What came out of me that day to paint such a wild painting is a mystery. It was so long ago, I don’t remember much except that I fully let go and I always am impressed with the result. The original painting was much more extreme, and at the top, had some wilder blue edges. I looked at it for another month and “fixed”it and this was the end result.
This is one of those paintings I am afraid is too much for people. It is very raw in it’s form and it is a take it or leave it kind of painting. Either you like it, or you don’t. This is full on extreme art. I thought of painting over it recently and stopped myself. Why cover up who I am, and what came out of me? It matters, and I matter. This painting says that loud and clear and fitting in with it’s meaning…speak..loudly, boldly. But it is not about the kind of speaking that we see every day online, the complaining, the anger, the rage bait stuff we see on social media. This is deeper, and more hidden. Speak..the hidden things. The things you don’t want anyone to know. Find a way to let them out.
