I know that every day that I rearview Annie's story and the BM movie, and my life too!!
Life to me is... duality. Ennis and Jack!! One duality, like in each of my paintings I create on canvas. Let me explain:
I rearview with sadness like Jack is then going away from Ennis, and with hope too as he seeks to help Ennis going towards him again - all that... like when Jack looked in his rearview mirror after leaving Ennis after they both came down from their work on Brokeback Mountain, that is sadness or tempest as in one way is a landscape in my painting! And, I am happy that he stopped his truck and came to see Ennis, that is hope... but Ennis rejected being too sad and/or perplexed!!?? A tempest scene!
On the other hand, in each of my paintings, there is also hope. Tranquility of a landscape. When Jack arrives for his 2nd year job, he sees in reaview Ennis since he has an immediate crush on the newcomer (soon he will find out to be Ennis)!! Jack's colours are bright with hope... as he looks in a mirror shaving... looking at Ennis!! A tranquill scene!
I always present two landscapes in each of my paintings... two scenes: tempest and tranquility!! I find that Annie does too, in her writing: Brokeback Mountain!! Annie does also rearviews??
Hugs!
