I had a bruise a bit like that on my knee/leg after a fall - turns out my knee cap had dislocated and then gone back in, do you think your elbow might have done the same?
Nice!
I think the purple streaks on the red back ground with the faint yellow highlights down the arm really bring out the true character and impact of the painting.
Sorry bruise.
I have had a few 'beautys' in my time but that is a whole different leauge! (sorry is this an Australianism?)
