PATHLESS (1999)
Acrylic on Panel - 18" x 24"

In preparing works for a one-man show, I was pressuring myself to have every painting be about a "grand theme" and I was searching around for a subject. I was feeling almost as stressed as if I had a deadline for an illustration project. 1/2

A barefoot woman in a long black dress stands on a rock in the middle of a golden field of wheat. The simple cut of her dress is accented with purple at the waist, cuffs and neck. Her face is framed by wavy dark hair as she tilts her head to the side. She reaches a hand to the "V" of her unbuttoned collar, simultaneously touching a broach, which is set in a plain black band around her neck. From the troubled set of her brow to her awkward foot position on the rock, her body language reads discomfort.
