new figurative painting

here's the first of a series of figurative acrylics.... for a new show i'm having in the spring. i like this one.. because the hands project out and become a barrier and impediment to the rest of the painting. the tire tracks are symbolic on a number of levels. i'm considering a number of titles for this piece, but if you have a suggestion-- please leave it here.

    Hi Carol,
    Love your blog!!
    How about "Don't Tread On Me" for this great composition.
    I also love the "fractured" self portrait.
