Matt, your wonderful painting shares perfectly your story in your description. Again, your night skies with the constellations is superb as the foreground silhouettes the heavens. F/L.

Matt Konar replied:

Thank you Randy ~ not only can you create beautiful works of art ~ but humorous ones too! I love your depiction of Eve : )

Love how your art always tells a story... more than one story at times and leaves the interpretation up to the viewer... I see two runaway slaves on their way to freedom... L/F

Matt Konar replied:

Thank you for your kind words Hazel, their are actually three in the little pram - the mother is reaching her hand over her baby in the bow.

Matt your "story telling" paintings are exceptional works of art and they appear to be left open to the interpretation of the viewer. I see two runaway slaves gliding silently through the cedar swamp on their way to freedom. The constellations dance and twinkle over their heads..the reflections in the water add an overall surreal atmosphere to this beautiful painting..I love it and you earn another gold...L/V...outstanding dreamy work

Dave, I love your comments because they always direct me back to your site ... your work is full of life!

Artist's Description

Algol is a binary star in the constellation Perseus. It is the bright star in the severed head of Medusa which every 68 hours and 49 minutes will wink at the viewer. The Hebrews knew Algol as "Rosh ha Satan" Satan's Head. In Arabic it is called "Ra's al Ghul" the Demon's Head. The Greek tale is that if one looked at this demon Medusa - they would be turned to stone. Perseus slew Medusa, then used her severed head to turn the sea monster Cetus to stone and then broke the chains that bound Andromeda. Andromeda, the lady in bondage and chains, is located in the sky below Perseus and above Pisces. This story does have a happy ending, after Perseus frees Andromeda she becomes his beautiful bride - represented by the constellation Cassiopeia.

So for me, it is best not to have my heart turned to stone - not to look at the winking Algol.

In this painting, there are other stories and symbols of slavery, freedom and life ... I hope you enjoy the viewing.

About Matt Konar

Matt Konar

Konar's work is both light and dark in subject, approaching at every turn both the whimsical and the mischievous. He uses the canvas as a stage to capture moments of love and heroism, as well as times of human folly. His characters come from real life, from songs, from poems and from stories. All the stories take place under a starry sky with the drama of the constellations. Unexpected details are presented through the book on a shelf, the image in a mirror, the wallpaper pattern, an individual leaf, and many other visual gestures waiting to be unlocked by the viewer. His technique of using glaze upon glaze creates colors that are deep, rich and vibrant. There is a profound sense of mystery, nuance, symbolism and timelessness in the...
