The eternity beneath the bathtub

The eternity beneath the bathtub

The idea for this painting is based on a childhood memory of mine. Our bathtub (we did not have a clawfoot tub, I only chose it for the painting because clawfoot baths are more awesome to travel through space in) was not free standing, and when you knocked against the bottom of it while being inside it made a hollow sound (because of the tiny space between the wall and the floor) and I imagined that space to be huge, endless and universe-like and sometimes I was worried the tub would break loose off the bathroom and fall into that hole.
