This 'after image' was the jumping off point for the glow-in-the-dark paint 'after images.' This painting came after the A Color and a Field painting. So I still had ideas of 'decorated grief' in my head. I'd also just seen a Francis Bacon exhibit in The Hague. I'm sure I was influenced by his Screaming Pope, which I love. I usually exhibited this painting close to the floor with the 'after image' half-way on the floor.
