This is the last of a series of linear cubism that I have
done. It’s oil and mixed media on canvas. The story is about a Madam in
Frankfurt who is at the end of her long career. I wanted the image to be one
that portrays a life long journey to the realities of what her business
decisions had made on her. I kept thinking of a woman in her 60’s with garish
makeup and the brutalities she had faced in the underworld of prostitution. The
hand was an important piece of the painting. It’s a colored x-ray and to me was
a pivotal part of the painting. However, one can interpret their own subjective
thoughts about it. Figurative abstract and cubism can have many perceptions and
each one must decide how the piece effect them.
