You Better Run

Junior Kimbrough...perhpas the most underrated bluesman of our time. His music breaks my heart, ever see a big guy cry?! If haven't heard his blues go out and get You Better Run: the Essential Junior Kimbrough, it will floor you...oil, charcoal on burlap, 39.5" x 48", much more raw and freestyle than J.C., I wasn't too comfortable with this palette, cad. red, white, and pthalo blue are my safety net

Very expressive and true to your style. I don't see the little circle you always put in the eye?

Nice brush work. Great colors. I think all of your things are metamorphoses of sorts. I know why you like Kafka. My favorite is "The Hunger Artist."
