“Detached”, a painting by Jesse Narens. It is a little more than a foot square and depicts an abstracted bear’s head that is decaying and intertwined with rootlets and vines. The head is painted in white paint on a black background.

I just discovered a favorite artist, @jessenarens.bsky.social, is here on Bluesky. I purchased “Detached”, a small painting of theirs, in 2020. It watches over me in my living room and brings me comfort.
