Amore Est Defacile. 2009. Nail polish on paper. 5" x 7".
Amore Est Defacile (Love Is Difficult) is one of the only abstract works that I have ever done. Back when I knew some French, I liked to have my language skills play a cameo in my art...most were phrases of broken and jumbled French with little or no meaning. However, this reminds me of a Matisse work, titled right on the painting "Les Betes de la Mer" and I love the assemblage of busy, metallic colors and the way that they seem to move across the page and then melt.
