Together Alone no 2

Well.... this is another of the Cyprus "Together-alone" series.. it is mostly watercolour so it differs from the rest which are oil pastels. But it is the same size - about 3o x 40cms - and definitely the same subject. A couple in tension. As so often with these paintings - (tomorrow you will see another one like that) - the emotional content is kind of disappearing off the edge of the frame - you may not even perceive the head of the male figure disappearing out of the rhs of the frame. It has in some ways the slightly exploding character of the sunflower nude of a few posts ago - I wish i could bottle the technique - I have no precise idea how I made it except it all came together in the last 30 seconds or so.
