In my attempt to paint the comedy and tragedy masks, something astonishing happened. I’m not an artist, and not at all good with painting emotion and such – but the ribbons that I drew in to show that they were hollow masks actually added to the emotion of the pictures. Oddly, instead of ending up with “Comedy and Tragedy” I ended up with “Scared and Crazy”.
Once I recognized the “ribbon effect” as I called it, I tried again. This time I just stopped thinking and painted. I ended up with “Angry and Dangerous”. Also unintentionally, if you do the “magic eye” thing with “Angry and Dangerous”, it looks like “Angry” is coming after you.
Sweet Dreams,
Matt
