Slow Shoulder with Gold Leaf

Slow Shoulder (Oil, 48X48) Full Flash

No flash and in the dark. 

People often tell me about how they experience my paintings in different light. I love the idea of things changing according to light.

It's no secret my husband hates this giant painting of him. We have agreed that I will let him keep the trash can painting (I won't even link to it I hate it's acrylic texture so much) and I will keep this one. It is hands down my favorite painting to date simply because of the subject matter (+attachment) and poem. Maybe that's why I can't quit touching this canvas. I know there will be other paintings to follow that will some day trump this one and I probably won't even want to hang it. There were these and this before it. For now I need this one to be just. like. this.

*Posted for Lara, my non-FBing, non-instagramming friend who kicks ass in the kitchen, in the wild, and is a tender mom. (Yes, Lara. I used an Oxford Comma.) This painting is also for your cute little blondie who magically weaves circles in and around all of us.
