Painting for Art Critique

Describe: This painting is a suicide painting. The man who is lying in a bed seems to have shot himself and there is blood all over the right side of the painting. There are also a few spots on the floor.
Analyze: There are a few geometric shapes and the rest are organic. There are lots of lines that are horizontal, vertical and diagonal. The texture looks rough and 3-dimensional. The color is very dark and depressing.
Interpret: I think the artist was in a very bad mood and was expressing his feelings. He might have had a slight case of depression or suicidal thoughts. Or that was him after he painting the picture. The painter has an interesting way of expressing his thoughts.
Judge: I would never ever ever hang this painting in my house ever! It is too depressing and suckish. If you do hang this up in your house you need to get some help.
