Sheena’ King by Chris St. Pierre
Paint on canvas 5 ft x 5 ft
I was thinking about freedom and imprisonment while I painted this. This person who I don’t know but I’m studying her face and she seems so pleasant. The circumstances that brought me to this situation of painting this person. If she hadn’t been imprisoned I probably never would have painted this. I’d like to meet Sheena’. I hope she likes the painting
