"Subject"
His vision is captured through a lens,
He doesn't know any better.
His speech tumbles without a care,
He never knew any better.
He was crazy for the sweet collision of heat --
How could he have done better?
The green iris swallows him whole;
You really could have done better.
The painting below depicts a date and experience that was extremely important to me. I painted this only recently, while watching the film Call Me by Your Name — with evident elements of that movie playing out on the page. The different levels of green represent the colours inside the iris, surrounding the pupil.
