Day 52: Alien Tree
After naming this 4"x6" work, I couldn’t decided whether it’s a tree on an alien landscape, or the alien is the tree. This was the quickest painting to date. I love it. I’m reminded of a story about Whistler (which I’ve long misattributed to Picasso) that a drawing he’d done in 30 seconds “actually took 80 years to create.”
What matters is not the time between the first brushstroke and the last, but all the life experiences that led to the work’s creation.
I’m selling this one for $1,750.00
