Floating Joyce
This painting is just Joyce's head painted on white with colourful brush strokes and textures with attention on his eyes, his eyes were wonkey... a problem with his eyes, painted with reference from the Joyce statue in Stephen's Green Dublin by artist Marjorie Fitzgibbon.
James Augustine Aloysius Joyce (2 February 1882 – 13 January 1941) was an Irish novelist, short story writer, poet, teacher, and literary critic. Born 1.8 miles from where I grew up, he contributed to the modernist avant-garde and is regarded as one of the most influential and important authors of the 20th century. It was not that he invented a new style of writing but he invented many new styles and it was not until the 50's and 60's that academics understood his true abilities.
