As I Sometimes Am by Ra Born
Medium: Acrylic on linen
Size: 8.5 x 11 inches
Artist statement: Being still and kept to myself in a world of nothingness with a not a soul a sole of solemnity, melted by fraternity with the mere of mind. It’s here that I am at most myself with a tale of a lifetime draped over shoulder twisted decade of experiences within, abstract purpose and meaning worn with confidence warring in corruption with an incorruptible zeal for my redemption song Quintessential, in thought…. Thou Art.
