Most the Way There


This painting has been my work of the last few weeks. What's shown here is what's most the way there. I finished it and will take another shot and post when the sun arises again (assuming it does, etc). This piece evolved out of thoughts on modern work space, the psychology of current employment laws and polices (regulate, much? trust little, no?), and Kafka (The Trial specifically). It is hard not to think of Dali which, given the subject and theory, seems appropos. The experience of creating this painting was emotional and visceral. There were times I was terrified, sad, indignant, angry, joyful, relieved, skeptical, fearful, and puzzled.
