Echo...echo...echo

Around a year or two ago, I painted a companion piece for the "Narcissus" painting (below). I did the piece below, "Echo" in 2004. It's a much smaller piece, but then if you know the myth, you'll know that the nymph echo pined away to her namesake, as her love for the self-obsessed Narcissus never came to fruition, as he sat gazing at his reflection in a pool. So the size difference is appropriate.
