I’m not really liking the foreground as much as the background in this picture, but ever since I saw “He died with a falafel in his hand” (it’s a movie) I wanted to include an underwood in one of my paintings, because writing is cool, and they are so antiquated but really interesting. The underwood was there for Hunter S. Thompson, most beatniks and the guys in Naked Lunch. I like to think that it could find its way most places. Interest in tying shoes… it might show up in later paintings. The reference photo for the girl is a ballerina tying her shoe. I like it. Develop more.
