Finally!! It's Home!

I've been eyeing this piece for awhile now. Eyeballing it through the show case of a store that's been closed for remodeling for at least two months. I was beginning to lose hope that I'd ever see it up close. But then yesterday the store was reopened. And the price was much less than I had been expecting. It has a new home now!!

I love the colors! I love how the face is off center and is partially darkened and obscured. There's simplicity, color and mystery present. I feel intensity in the eyes also!! Maybe it's reminding me of a moment from my past?

From the first time I saw it, it became one of those pieces that called out to me for repeated viewing. I kept coming back .... at least once or twice a week. I don't know .... In the months it's been displayed in that downtown window I might be the only person that gave it a second look. And though I have no idea of its true artistic quality and value (or if it has a title) all that really matters is that it speaks with undefined emotion to someone.
