Wax, Thread and Lion |
At this time I decided to give realism a real shot. After the peace and introversion of the country I returned to Boston with a feeling of centeredness. I was focusing on academics but painted many of these stillifes in between work and school. Garbage and ache fill these little beings. You have to understand that each object I chose was infused with meaning and menace. Nothing is left to chance. I became quite controlling with these pieces.
