I
painted this when I was living in Fitchburg (decidedly, the worst
move I have ever made). I was just on my path of recovery after
a pretty bad break-up. I still felt trapped by various forces
- tendrils of some darker nature, constantly trying to pull me
back to the depression and gloom that I had been feeling for so
long - all the while, I just kept reaching for a brighter, shiny
future that contained some kind of idyllic love. This was my realization
of that process. I have used small amounts of metallic gold paint
in various other pieces of art - always to describe some kind
of fleeting goal. |
