Earth Man

This painting started as an abstract that I had been wiping extra pigments on randomly with no idea of what it would become. At some point I began to see the profile suggested in the yellowgreen area that was a negative space bordered by the darker shape between it and the right edge of the canvas. I let it evolve as inspiration decided, loose and painterly with some palletteknife and old paintscrap for texture and just a hint of realistic detail. I think I'll call it "Earth Man".
