Hello STEEMIES!

It's Friday night, a period after work, then a period for a few drinks after work with work mates, and now I'm here home, tipsy, wishing my work mates weren't so bloody prudish and sensible, wanting to go home, instead going off to another exciting venue !

'YOU'RE KIDDING ME, RIGHT?, I said with bedroom eyes.

As I write, it's 23:30 pm and this is the time I used to get all dolled-up to get ready to go out clubbing. But life changes and now sitting here at home with past drum'n'bass beats mix pulsating through my mind while writing, supposedly, an interesting blog with no censuring for your perusal.

This painting is sort of strange, I know.
I'm an experimental person and will try anything once as long it doesn't pose a threat to my being. For instance, things I will not do is bungee jump off a bridge no matter if others were successful before me.

I'll attempt bungee jumping when I'm in my 90's.

And I will never play Russian roulette, no matter what, but I've dealt roulette as a croupier in my previous job in a high end casino. It was not physically harmful, but it was soul crushing after awhile, so in fact it was potentially fatal remaining having bits of your soul scooped out year after year.

However what's really harmless is experimenting with random ideas as a novice artist and painting. **INCOGNITO, was one of these fun and benign conceptions.

I painted the background, initially in titanium white. Then without any concrete ideas, I just played around with different tools and colors to create the paint. You can see the colors below, but I also used the edge of a steel spatula to create any arch you see below.

And, do I need to tell you again, I took a snapshot of the image, then uploaded it to my computer and finalized my painting from here by seeing what I want to shade and highlight.

The title came from not really seeing a specific, defined face, but one no one can recognize, ergo the title, INCOGNITO which popped into my mind and I went with it!

Freely speak your mind in the comments, I will read them.

Thank you for visiting my Blog and I wish you all the success with your own.

FOLLOW, if you will...I have lots more art and poetry to come!
I would highly appreciate an UPVOTE
If you RESTEEMED that would be awesome.

It's now 00.02 am, and I'm yawning long and deep, and wondering where my besties for life are at so we can go out so I can catch my second wind in a room full of strangers and din.

Hey @garudi! I think it's great that you can see a story in my painting. Very impressive! I listened to the song, only once, and was waiting to hear Incognito in the lyrics but did not detect it.
