"Solitude For A Zombie"

I was recently traveling on a train back to Edinburgh after two long weeks of self exile in the middle of Grantown-On-Spey and Advie. I looked at the two weeks as a quest to find myself although what I found wasn't all that pretty, It was profound...Walking ten miles in search of beer will do that to a man.

The train was between Perth and Kirkcaldy when I looked out at a nearby field and saw a man in the distance walking aimlessly. The sun was setting and he looked lost but he also looked like he had a purpose of some kind. By purpose I mean that maybe he was meant to be in that field for some unknown reason (In reality he was probably just a farmer staggering home after a long day in the fields).

Anyway, The darker side of my imagination took over and I began picturing him as a lone zombie maybe the last zombie wandering in a post apocalyptic countryside looking for something to sate his hunger. Below is my visual response to this thought....

The scans don't really do this painting justice but they are still a fair depiction of the original. Prints and the original (A2 size) painting are available to buy.
