Eyelashes

10"x8" oil on canvas. I believe the official title of this piece logged in at the Library of Congress is actually "Are Those Eyelashes or the Brooklyn Bridge Coming Out of Your Face," or something like that. I normally have to tone down the colors in these pictures because my nefarious camera often indiscriminately boosts them, but here I actually had to boost the colors a bit to give you a better idea of what is happening: I threw everything and the kitchen sink at her face. Sometimes the color genie just escapes its bottle and ends up on my paintings. The genie may appear to have been inebriated, but it was fun just the same. Now, I just need to find the cork.
