After seeing the number of visits to my previous postings of "What Goes Around" and "Comes Around" (on page 11), I realized I did not post an image of the full triptych as it is meant to be seen. Since this triptych is so wide (nearly 10 feet) it is not a great format to view on this web site, but it does illustrate how the pieces have been designed to fit together... when you have all the pieces to the puzzle. Adding the two end pieces ("Comes Around") if you will notice, makes the triptych a full 360 degree image. Moving the two end pieces together on either the right or left side, gives a few options to display the three pieces together. Alone as a set, switching the two end pieces left for right makes the diptych "Comes Around". What you may find interesting is that initially, I was only commissioned to do the center 30 x 80 painting. It was titled "What Goes Around". About a year after completing that painting the owner asked if I could do another piece to extend the paintings length by a few feet to accommodate a larger wall in their new home. I agreed but seen a challenge to come up with art that made it appear as though the now longer painting would appear it was exactly how it was originally intended to appear, and that the additional two pieces could stand alone as a diptych if necessary. I had no idea that this would one day become a "diptych-triptych" but somehow everything, including the titles, seemed to fit as though they were meant to be.
