The series of paintings entitled "od, odd, odder" presents a thought-provoking and dynamic narrative of an ongoing argument. The central figures in the painting are three individuals - "Od", "Odd", and "Odder" - each with their unique personality and perspective.
"Od" is the most opinionated of the trio, their frustration at being ignored evident in their expression. They seem to be attempting to make a point, but are being met with resistance from the others.
"Odd" is depicted as a mediator of sorts, trying to balance out the strong personalities of "Od" and "Odder". They prefer to remain neutral, but it's clear that they are struggling to keep the peace.
"Odder" is the most exuberant of the three, finding the whole situation amusing. Their exaggerated joyous expression suggest that they are not taking the argument seriously.
The paintings capture the ongoing argument as it unfolds, with each figure engaged in the conversation and reacting to the others. As the argument continues, it becomes clear that a resolution is needed, and the trio must find a way to reach a compromise. The paintings suggest that clarity of mind is required to reach a resolution, and it is only through finding a common ground that the argument can be resolved. The use of the bold golden color and expressive thin lines adds to the tension and emotion of the scene, emphasizing the complexity of the interpersonal dynamics at play.
