About The Artwork

*******************Update************************* This is one of those autocrat painting that happen to me once awhile. I painted this in March of 2019. When I was finished I wrote a autocrat poem (below). I could not think of a title for it and heard a little voice inside that said Malignant Muse. It seems to fit. 2 months later, the end of May much to my surprise I was diagnosed with envasive Breast Cancer. My life became a whirlwind of emotion and a relentless treatment schedule. In the 6 months I had 3 surgeries and a very long course of radiation. And I can now say that I am Cancer Free and starting to reclaim my life. So Today I noticed that I had not put it up for sale and took time to read the poem (write them and usually forget them shortly afterwards) I was struck by the tone, emotion and accuracy in the defining of my experience as a breast cancer survivor. Who says art has to be pretty to speak to you? Original description: March 2019 It has been 2 months since I have spent any time in my studio. I don't really know why. I was creating art right along but drawing only. So today was the day, Out I went. I sat there for a minute then another and another and decided I had no idea what I wanted to do. So I prayed a rather short although sincere. Lord what would you have me do? Picked up my phone and told Siri to play some Beth Hart ( my favorite choice to paint by) well I don't know what happened but Beth Hart was no longer in my playlist. Instead the Sound track from a star is born with Lady Ga Ga. I absolutely LOVE that album but, I have a visceral reaction every time I hear it. Today was no different. I am listening and wondering why am I putting myself through this but made no move to change it. Turns out I have been on auto pilot with my emotions as of late. They needed an outlet. So here lies my disappointments, betrayals, anger and angst. my frustration, and failure for all to see in a single glance here lies my dreams shattered and stops my sunken hopes from evil black ops Here are my tears defeat and misssteps things I misfigured and in desperation misguessed Out in the open I am ok I will walk away lighter and awaiting a better day. Well be for sale when fully dried.
