The Burden of the World -- 2 versions


Burden of the World I, 2008, acrylic on board, 14" x 11".


Burden of the World II, 2008, acrylic on board, 14" x 11".

Here are 2 new small paintings based on the ink drawing, "The Loneliest One" (see below). There are 2 distinct treatments -- the first version was more expressionist & painterly, the second more "objective", if you will. Strangely, the emotional impact seems to me to be more or less equal, though different somehow...
