“Suzie Q”
Oil on aluminum
36x48
The title of this painting is derived from the song, Susie Q, written by Louisiana musician Dale Hawkins. It was most famously performed by Creedence Clearwater Revival and The Rolling Stones. It is simple in its words, and hints at male desire and female indifference. A further layer of meaning relates to a biblical story often depicted in art history, Susanna and the Elders. In my painting the elders are all desirous of what floats above their heads, unattainable. Suzie is young, buff, in control, self-aware… she uses the old guys' desires to her own ends, not worried about the cauldron of aging testosterone bubbling beneath her.
