Portrait of my Father

"Father" (June 21, 2015)
as stores abort
babes a red
beam passes atop
poor streets, stops

tom stares sobs
tree sap tears
as gas mars
grass tom goes


to be apropos

I like the way you've been using repeated patterns to indicate shapes. Is there a reason why your sister's hair is less bounded than your fathers? Both works are great! Just wondering about the difference, if it's because of the use of color in one, or something more about the content of the piece.

Hey S.! The differences in the hairstyles is just a reflection of what the hair actually looks like. My sister's hair is short and sometimes sprawls out wildly, whereas my father's hair is much more contained.
