Comments: Mystery is a work that began as a simple colored pencil horizon with several pink spheres floating through space. After several years I reworked it with oil pastels. Over the next few years I worked on it several more times. For a long time I thought I might rework it again (the blues seemed a little too primary) but I didn't want to risk losing what was already there. And what is there? A dreamscape. There is romance, lamplight, a fallen man, a cup of tea...
