Day two of theme week...

Just hanging out with a good friend today....
To paint his hands, I took probably a dozen photos of my own hands all knotted up around a Ren-Fest dagger. 😎

For each painting, I begin with a feeling, a story, and a real-life mood.

Sometimes it's subtle or oblique. Sometimes it's obvious.

That said, I'm always more interested in your interpretation.

This one's on a buttery soft framed wood panel.
