Lamentation

There's a famous dance by Martha Graham called "Lamentation" where she dances the entire piece wrapped in this tube of fabric.  Sounds totally weird but it really conveys a sense of trapped in pain expression.  Here's Martha Graham in my favorite pose:
I've have always been captivated by this image as it represents a form of locked struggle.

Here's my rendition with regard to my sense of struggle:
It's not entirely as grieved as I saw in my head but actually more prayerful which is where I believe the Lord wants me right now.

I have no expectations that this is anything but my artistic rant through my emotional storm right now.  Just purging through charcoal.
