You don't know how wonderful dirt is

My painting is gradually improving. As you can see now I am able to define shapes! The title comes from writer James Joyce, in response to the modernist architectural critic and patron saint Sigfried Giedion. The piece below is my interpretation (or attempt) of that exchange; the juxtaposition of the rough paint strokes giving a sense of wear and age to the pure, sanitary, modernist walls.
