Nervous

I don't see the point of all this testosterone-based tough talk. Like everyone else on this beautiful planet, I just want to live my life without the fear that everything's going to be blown to bits tomorrow.

I did work on The Chair last night. The flesh tones are very flat and pale right now but the painting will acquire some depth as it develops. The color scheme reminds me of de La Tour, especially his "The Fortune Teller."
