Artist
James McCormack
Medium
Painting - Gouache On Paper
Description
Fine art addict is an artist addicted to fine art, an addict obsessed, always tempted to give more time and effort, blood, sweat and tears, to this tempting pleasure, symbolised by snakes appearing out of his cigarette smoke, to the detriment of his relationship with his sketchily defined weeping partner. His dirty hands do not hold her, but grip his brushes and his next canvas.

OMG, I love it! You've outdone yourself this time, James. Your description made me lol, especially "his sketchily defined weeping partner" - that poor woman! I hope that there's another version in your future where the roles are reversed and the artist is a woman because I will identify!
James McCormack replied:
It was almost a portrait of you, Peggy, I thought addict and thought Peggy! That will be another one. Thanks for your wonderful comments, made me laugh.
David Choate
A lot going on here, James. Wonderful image of a serious subject!
James McCormack replied:
Serious, if not a bit overboard. One to make us artists think, all the details refer to something.
Debra Kewley
Great work exhibiting great emotion...nice!
James McCormack replied:
Thanks Debra, yes, the emotion is there, glad you said that so I know it got across.
Donna Mibus
This is great James. I think there should be a support group for spouses of artists?
James McCormack replied:
Thank you Donna. Artists are incurable, so it's the spouses need support. ( Teach 'em art!)
