Hurt Hate
2002 - Acrylic on Masonite
- 24" x 29"
This painting was executed
during a particularly ugly
period. My pain was represented
with a tarot card image
of a heart being pierced
with knives. My hatred was
expressed with a torn up
picture of my abusing grandfather
- the only way I could convey
my violent feelings towards
a person who was long dead
but who was still impacting
me so profoundly.
