This really makes me feel...I don't know what, but it certainly creates impact and a desire to study the mood. Technically as always, it is excellent, and as I have said before, I love your shading. It is so intense. I see the grief, but also a lot of caged anger, even rage. Amazingly well done, Seth.

Artist Reply: Sally thank you so much for your comment. This work is a linoleum print...all the white areas have been cut out of a sheet of linoleum tile. The black areas are inked with a rubber roller. This medium is very bold and that's what I love about it. You have to draw your image and then cut away white areas. I have sme more of these type works in my portfolio..."Cat in the Flowers,""The Blessing," "Tears for Her Dead,"and "Kentucky Finish." Thanks again for the comment!

This is a good one, brother. It looks like a haggered old man with a lot on his mind. Love it! Dot
