FIst First- Jason style review






well well well.... not sure if i should fake an attempt at being sentimental, psychological, or just straight up BORING on this one. I started painting it in April of this year, if i recall correctly. All i knew was that i wanted to paint the canvas completely black and then bring something to life out of it. It's been months since i completed working on it (although ima go back in anyways soon for a few small things.) so now that i look back i think i was just looking at a lot of Caravaggio at this time. I think i have always taken a hair of influence from him but... not TOO much.

It's like a weird combination of surrealism, baroquey shtuff, and impressionism or fauvism. Like a mutant maybe..... I have never titled this painting, but i think that maybe i should. In it's first stage there was another skull almost in a mirror reflection below it. It had a bright blue in it and was really hot, but it looked horrible, so i just went completely over it. Instead, i just thought that it might be fun to lay in the nice hot light of a lamp and let my body disintegrate.

You all may decide for yourselves. For you see, all along i have been wanting this key lime pie yogurt that has been flirting with me all night. here i come!
