"Reflective Thoughts"


"Reflective Thoughts"
When I saw  this particular challenge, it is for some odd reason that I wanted to make this painting as though  that there was a live model who was going through chemotherapy at the time of this pose. Cancer has been making itself to be known among to several of my family members who experienced this menace including my husband.(he only received radiation treatments).  It was several years ago when I remembered seeing bald female models on the "Oprah Winfrey Show" discurssing their experiences of both holding down the modeling positions while undergoing chemotherapy treatments at the same time period. 

In this picture, "Dani" (not her real name) is in the lower, left-hand corner in this painting seeing three various reflections of herself in the other three corners through mirrows and glass.  The mirror image on the right is about her praying and seeking spiritual answers, the image on upper right-hand side represents rationalization and reasoning, and the other image on the upper, left-hand side represents both sorrow as well sadness.  At times, this model as well many cancer patients can have a "touch-me-not" moment.
