"Aftersome" Original Painting

"Aftersome" was created in 2023 on an 11" x 17" canvas panel using acrylic paint. This piece is one of many inspired by my favorite blog-turned-book, "The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows" by John Koenig. aftersome adj. astonished to think back on the bizarre sequence of accidents that brought you to where you are today—as if you’d spent years bouncing down a Plinko pegboard, passing through a million harmless decision points, any one of which might’ve changed everything—which makes your long and winding path feel fated from the start, yet so unlikely as to be virtually impossible.
