Ms. Brennan’s partial comments:
“Immediately attracted to William Tell reference and bodily expression of the subject. Is he staring at a drawn bow and arrow? He’s anxious! I’m anxious for him! Then to discover the humorous title and reference to Magritte – what a lovely surprise for this viewer! I laughed right out loud alone with the work!!! Well conceived, executed and presented! And the lighting even reminiscent of a different time and age, although a contemporary subject…”
