RE: Finished Painting!! CITIZEN KONG! 16x20" Oil on canvas.
I love this so much! The concept is just great. Something about a gorilla sleeping in an ornate bed with upholstered headboard is cracking me up. I don't think I would have caught the very subtle Statue of Liberty out the window but now that you mention it I totally see it. I think my favorite bit is the portrait of the woman on the wall, which I am sure has some kind of significance but I am loving it for her expression even without knowing what that is :) You rock! Much love - Carl
Thank you, Carl! I'm glad you like my sense of humour! :D
Yeah, the statue of liberty is very subtle. I wouldn't expect anyone to see it for what I mean it to be without an explanation. It's less formed than most of the foreground. :D
The woman is meant to be Fay Wray, the actor who was King Kong's interest in the original movies. Fun fact - she was selected for the role for her scream alone! :D
You also rock!
