This man has a resemblance to the late great Edgar Allen Poe. The painting is meant to show that like a story it has a beginning, middle, and end. It starts with a drawing,then an underpainting. The underpainting is left showing through. Then the colors are blocked in like on the right. Ended with final blending, as displayed on the left. The process is laid out for the viewer. The pieces breaking away symbolize how a person can get lost in a story or painting and come part of it.
