This Leonard Cohen is for this upcoming show in Ottawa here opening December 13th. Half of the proceeds from the silent auction of the pieces will go to a local charity for kids.
Subtle smudges. My other tool besides the brush, my finger, spreads dots of wet watered-down paint into tapped tiny suggestions of light, of volume. It creates basically an organically-edged wash, softened shade. The black vinyl still dominates, pulling the face back into the depths.
The depths.
Peace.

What a particularly beautiful piece! As a lifelong Leonard Cohen nut, I would be honored to have this on my wall for all eternity. (Sadly, my husband is an anti-fan, so it would never fly.)
I'm sure it will fetch a pretty penny at a Canadian auction. Nice call!!
An anti-fan! Wow. Maybe as a peace offering he'd get you one for a holiday gift? I would love to paint this image again.
Show it to him? Maybe he'll just like it as art decor.
In any event, thanks muchly for the compliment. I hope this one does do well at auction.
Peace.
feeling it!
