I painted this in one night.
The title is a misheard lyric that originally inspired me.
The original lyric was "like the poison in her arm" (from the song "Hope" by Apocalyptica), yet the first time I heard it,
and even now, I always seem to want to replace "eye" for "arm". And it just reminded me of jealousy, how it is a poison,
and the old term personification of jjealousy being a "green-eyed monster".
I have been so satisfied with this piece, that I can't
believe I did it myself. It doesn't look like it should be mine. I think it's one of my best pieces.
And the best pieces can have the darkest origins.
