This is also one of my favourite works. I do believe in the term To each his own. For me, if I like the journey as well as the destination then that is joy. If I do not enjoy the process of painting, then I feel the painting is incomplete. It was in the middle of the night when sudden inspiration struck me and I just poured color on the canvas and created textures on it. Locked it in a room to dry overnight and to keep it away from my naughty cats. Except for the white part, I had absolutely no control over how the texture would come out..... and that is what I liked about this work. It is an extension of one of my earlier work, The King. Again here by bringing more of black and keeping blue to the minimum I wanted to show to myself that I can and should experiment with all colors. One has to observe closely in this painting for the minute details like the chess coins hidden in the white portion.
