This self portrait is Saturated with color, but instead of being childlike it remains sophisticated. The female figure is placed well off center with objects in the foreground and background that support the space and creates a wonderful composition . The use of space around the figure allows a collage type of placement of her memories or thoughts that she seems so immersed in. Line is used like a blue print for man made and natural complexities of whatever the problem seems to be. Some of the line has the appealing quality of that collage of blueprints and memories and has a nautical look as if someone she loves is a long lost sea captain. The color and the mood appeals to me and evokes the imagination, especially the pondering expression as if trying to map out or solve some deep and private quandary.
The identity is addressed as a person with a problem that is just breaking her heart, and if this difficulty could just be fixed she would be alright because she is young, beautiful and Vibrant.This female represents helplessness of the human condition.
