Anthony? Johnny? or no name?


Steve Specht here...
It's been a while since I posted a new piece. Here's one that I finished this weekend. I need to mount it and frame it though. But I'm having a bit of a problem with a 'name'. The title of the piece will be either "One Day Johnny... One Day" or "One Day Anthony... One Day" or "One Day Son... One Day". Does it make a difference if I assign a name to the individual in the vintage photo used in this piece? Hmmm... Any thoughts? And... should I care what others think? In general? Interesting questions methinks. Regardless... Enjoy!

I love the piece. It seems that keeping the name generic would open it up more for the viewer to fill it with their own story.

Yeah, that was my inclination. I will end-up floating the piece in what will be something like a shadow box. Although it's gonna cost me some money... I think the piece "deserves it". Thanks for the input!
