I honestly find this one to be a little more disturbing than your usual fare, but I also kind of feel like that's what you were going for, perhaps. All that mustard yellow feels earthy, yes...but also somehow toxic. The face is rather mask-like with its open-eyed stare, and the details in purple and red also lend to the ominous overtone.
The imagery, coupled with more stanzas of intriguing poetry, conjures up the suggestion of life and death. The endless cycles of birth, death, and rebirth. Endings and beginnings. In some ways these have been on my mind of late, such as with the advent of the new year, so perhaps that is colouring my opinion somewhat.
Ah, well--simply my own musings, after all. What does this painting represent to you? I wonder....
