'Shape of Madness' - Acrylic on Canvas Panel, 8x10 Framed

A figure appears to cry. Not out of defeat or depression but out of emotional lassitude. Colors push against black, feeding a void that wasn't there before. Incoherence narrates accumulation, as soft tears act as threads of sanity, falling deeper into the other side of the spectrum and turning into something else. The affliction grows contagious. While not alone in the midst of chaos, it remains as its own force. There is a painting behind this painting because I painted it that way. If one looks closely there are hints of what was; forms, colors and trees all obscured now, by the shape of madness.
