Interaction and Reaction

"...And the moment the story enters, the boredom comes upon you" - Francis Bacon in an interview with David Sylvester

I will not tell you why I painted what I paint, for the fear that once I tell you, the painting becomes boring, and eventually dead. So, I will let you come up with your own findings (please post your thoughts on the comments) and your own reactions. I find it very true that once a painting is complete, it takes a life of its own. Once my last stroke on the canvas is lifted, my interaction with the painting comes to an end. So now it is you, the viewer, begin your interaction with the painting. What do you see? What do you feel?
