Hand On Head

(c)1983 Ralf Schulze

This is from a large set of painting/sketches a I did at the end of my college days.

I essentially had some big paper to work with and 3-4 old enamel paints I found in the basement at home (my parent's home) [noxious stuff]   I found a photo from a current Newspaper and then proceeded to paint it Upside Down with the limited pallet I had.
It was fun > I did about 10 of them in a few days, this was one of the better ones.
The paper was huge! Bigger than 3 feet by 4 feet!  I did them in the summer because the chemical smell was over-powering, even in the large painting classroom I used (I had a key!).
