This 12 × 12 painting features my personal “caged head” iconography, surrounded by intricate dotting and linework layered over remnants of spray paint on a found canvas. Subtle windows of color emerge beneath the surface, suggesting the emotional spaces we expand within ourselves for the people we love. The piece plays with the idea that “the Blues” can mean sorrow or weight, yet the plans for our homes are traditionally drawn in blue ink—reminding us that the Blues are foundational to what we build. Created with acrylic, spray paint, and Posca pens, the work comes with a hand-printed and signed Certificate of Authenticity.
