349 ⬥A study of the "Knife Thrower"by Henri Matisse

The mauve figure stands, arms raised, vulnerable... and one wonders is this the one who will receive the knife or the knife thrower himself? The stencil like leaves surrounding the figure create an exotic setting that takes the figure out of the realm of a mere stage performance. This stiking piece, a 16"x12" canvas oil painting with frame, was created by Northwoods member Phyllis Burchfiel.
