I originally photographed this model for a different painting but a different image kept appearing to me. Sometimes paintings happen that way. So after a few months, we went back and tried again with this reclining pose. I wanted this work to convey the lushness, the absurdity and the complexity of life. The alligator is symbolic in his presence, and so is the trumpet flower in her ear.
