The artist about this work

The 3rd painting in the “Different phases” series. Smoking is considered a quote and quote taboo and is not entirely widely accepted. In this case it represents the things we do when none is watching. The effect of dark and light is clearly seen to symbolize that all that we do in the dark better be things that if they came to the light(get known) we should be comfortable with just as the face of the man is calm and basically unbothered.
