About the Painting:
This painting represents my interpretation of the three,
witchy
sister characters at the beginning
of the play. Rather than
portraying them
in the expected wrinkled, ugly manner, I
keyed
in on the element of dark seduction: that all that looks
good may not be what it seems.
It was my desire to amplify the emotion of temptation by
making the sisters hauntingly beautiful, disturbingly alluring,
mysterious, and inviting like a spider’s trap. I wanted the
viewers to feel that, although they may want to, they cannot
look away from the trap. I did this by employing an
old world
technique of direct eye gaze
with the viewer. This creates the
illusion
that the witch’s eyes are following you, and refusing to
let go of your gaze, no matter where you go in the room.
