Okay I don't love how the photo of this one came out. In real life, the brown in the background is more reddish, and the colors are vibrating more. My photos of my paintings usually have better color accuracy than this, but I was struggling here.

Anyway, I think I spent about two hours on this. Oil on wood panel. 8x10"

“For I am the first and the last. I am the honored and the despised. I am the whore and the saint. I am the wife and the virgin. [...] I am the ignorant and the wise. I am the shameless and the humble. Pay attention to me, you who hear, and learn from me, you who learn! For I am the knowledge of my seeking.”
