This piece was destroyed - regrettably. It is a masterpiece that I recognized as such until after it was too late. I didn't think too much of it at the time or over the years but in the past few years I consider it one of my best pieces. It is hard as a young artist with no affirmation for your work, to have the wisdom to dismiss the "noise." It is sometimes hard to recognize greatness. I have many such pieces that I foolishly painted over. Thankfully I have this image of the original. I used the cut up pieces of canvas to create "Becoming an Ocean, The Butterfly Effect" and possibly others.
