It’s Complicated…
A Portrait of Joseph Nicholas
Charcoal & Mixed Media on Toned Paper, 18 x 22 in., 2022
Joseph Nicholas stands in his weathered US flag shirt, whispering “It’s Complicated,” as he shakes his head in grief—not unlike others in the wake of the pandemic. Nicholas lost his life not long after his portrait was drawn.
He is Everyman, a life to remember and another soul to grieve.
