Snail on the Slope

Snail on the Slope, Selfie of the Artist
Snail on the Slope
Oil on Belgian linen. I used myself as a model for this work.
This painting is about Time. What we are for eternal time? Only snails on the slope.
The title 'Snail on the Slope' is after famous Kobayashi Issa's poem/haiku ‘O Snail’ where only three beautiful lines filled in with profound meaning:
O snail
Climb Mount Fuji
But slowly, slowly
