This is a pretty wacked rif on a fragment of a mixed media (collage, paint, etc) piece by Romare Bearden called Of the Blues: Mecklenburg County, Saturday Night.1974, in which I imagine myself in a different time and place, but still eager to answer questions.

I'm a big fan of Bearden's work but tonight I pretty much pulled an art book off the shelf at random, opened it to a random page, and got to work...

Although stylistically quite quite different, something about the pose definitely does relate to yesterday's rif on Giaocometti's Man Pointing.
