Original artwork description:

The last in a series of paintings on masonite. The paintings in this series deal very much with an "ordered chaos" of colors, movement and emotions. This painting deals with some darker tones and give the feeling of almost being tangled up in a web literally, or even metaphorically (such as being trapped by your own emotions or in the web of your mind). It is more design oriented and reminded me of the great Bob Dylan song, of the similar name.
