Rape

This is the only piece I have ever done like this. It represents an event in my life that I had to release so I did it through my art. I hope it touches everyone

Thank you Corry, It was a struggle for myself but now it is like nothing happened because it is locked within the oil painting. One of the advantages of being an artist.

Very strong image work..if I had three wishes,I'd give you some..I mean that respectively:)Yet,a theraputic release,I'm sure.Art always gives one a way to speak louder than words!

I think that it is great that you expressed and released in this manner. I hope it was very productive and healing for you!!! I have one similar in my gallery with a different meaning behind it. Great use of colors and very creative. I have to look at it several times to see all of the little hidden meanings and objects. Beautiful job!!! Keep it up!

Artist Reply: Thank you Valarie, Yes it did help, this piece is very large and I actually laid down on the canvas to get the figure, I wanted to transmit the emotions I held onto the canvas. But honestly on a lighter note, never lay in paint especially Crimson, it does Stain. (smiles) I hope you have a wonderful day and I shall go see what you hold in your gallery.
