There is something quite poignant in your portrait, as if some confusion in life has settled in, and refuses to leave…

NickYoungArt ::

March 21, 2011

I thank you, Gary. I believe that was the case with Charlie. I have long sensed a deep trouble within his soul. There is a marvelous, unproduced, screenplay about the Delta blues at the time Charlie was plying his trade. It's called "Love In Vain." Patton is portrayed as a man riven by demons.

noseprints ::

'riven by demons' -- what a phrase, Nick…

Great work Nick! I really like the surface you have been using lately. It adds a lot to your work.

NickYoungArt ::

March 23, 2011

Many thanks, Brenda. It's a Strathmore medium-weight textured paper(deeply dimpled). This is from their gray scale series.

JABSart ::

March 23, 2011

Thank you for your kind and supportive comments on"Grouping of Roses." I chose this recent piece, because I am so fascinated by the textures you create and this shows that so well. I enjoy black and white because it focuses on light--which is everything.

NickYoungArt ::

March 23, 2011

I'm pleased you like it so much, Joyce. Thank you for your thoughtful comments.

jbjoani2 ::

Many thanks..I need to get my act together. I am not well now..but Happy! I must get some of my better images up.. I also think I deleted my only order..good going on my part! This image of yours is very moving..to me it shows the pain the Black Man has.. I have known Black men and have them for friends over the years and women friends..also other cultures..it cannot be easy.. I am color blind..but man is not..India is not the only one with a "cast system".
