Painting - Oil Painting
Description
When someone is turning 30 years old, in America we say the person is "over the hill". Often times such birthday party is a costume party of all black with the black symbolizing the end of youth. In this painting I wanted to take this to the extreme by showing someone literally crawling over the hill in a surreal way. This is a painting in oil.

Very interesting spin! (But hey! If 30's over the hill, where does that leave 40? I thought 50 was the new 40...) Anyway, awesome piece!!
Angela Stanton replied:
hahhaa.. you are so right! I need to create a card for 40--which we all know is 30-10=20.. so 40=20... so maybe the first date? 50 is 50-20 so that is 30.. so when you turn 50 just get the same card as for 30.. lol... so forth! :)
