Confido

This painting is 24 inches square. It is a self portrait, based on my family motto "Confido." The family motto was on my keyring (hand symbol) so I included the set of keys in the foreground.

Location is in a kitchen and has a biblical feel to it as well. The oil jar, and mortar and pestle in the background are, at the same time, cooking instruments and tools of the artist.

Oil on canvas.
