Artist's Comments

12x36, oils on canvas

This is a very open ended piece, a lot of people see their own interpretations of its meaning. I think I see surrender, and serenity, and acceptance. The red is meant to be more like the satin ribbon they would have used in old plays to simulate blood, so I thought it gave it an extra theatrical feeling.

98% of teenagers do or have tried smoking pot. If you're one of the 2% who hasn't, copy & paste this in your signature.
(So I'm not a teen now, but when I was, I didn't, and still haven't.)

Absolutely amazing, not only a painting but oil? Bravo dear. :clap: It isn't easy to draw sometimes but unlike pencil you can't erase paint, you get kudos points for sure. :D

Thanks everyone! Yeah I had always hoped it came across as more "peaceful" and not violent. But you never know - it's hard to see your own work sometimes, and it helps to see it through others.
