old: Welcome To Terror My Love

As my old life drew to a crash about 6 years back, I sensed an urgent need to get back into making art. Specifically, I felt a need to jump headfirst into making paintings that I could show and sell. Well, like any other language, without practice one can get rusty with art.
I started 3 large paintings and finished zero. The concept was to marry stylish images of "beautiful" women with concepts of terror/war.

This is the one I came closest to finishing:
24''x48''
acrylic and collage on board

Reflecting back on the piece after a few years, it isn't that bad. It may be "finished" as well.
I aim to take at least one of the other unfinished two and finish in some fashion.
