Artist's Comments

Oil on canvas. I think the size was 16"x20".

For painting class we had to choose a contemporary artist and imitate their style. I chose Francis Bacon and based my painting on this one: link. The painting technique was pretty simple.

It didn't photograph very well. The photo makes the merry-go-round thing look a little smudged.

Thank you very much. I hadn't even heard of Bacon before I started this and found one of his paintings in an Art News magazine. Unfortunately, I haven't seen any of his other art.

if trees could scream, would we still be so cavalier about cutting them down? we might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.

Thank you. I'm not really proud of this one but it was fun to do.
