"Solitary" 6x6

I wracked my brain thinking up a name for this one. Then, I got all wrapped up in the sort of, double entendre, about the title possibly meaning, the guy in the glass is in solitary, or the shell is feeling solitary because he is the only shell, and I knew it was time to go hang on the couch and watch the Red Sox ;) Ya, and you think painting's easy, huh?

My apologies for the terrible glare on this :(

Nice work, Mary! Love the contrast with the black. I think the shell is the loner.

Mary, I know what you mean, sometimes these decisions are just too much. It can get way too overwhelming. You have the right idea, taking a break is sometimes the best decision.

Love the colors in the shadows. The glare has got to GO! Wait for an overcast but bright day and take it outside?
