Measuring an impressive 48” x 60”, this commanding 2007 original oil on canvas titled “Last Night He Acted Like a Jerk Again” by Chicago artist Walter Myers (b. 1954) is bold, layered, provocative, and unmistakably contemporary. The painting brings together symbolism, text, and layered graphic imagery in a visually complex and emotionally charged narrative. A female figure emerges from a richly worked surface animated by hand-written text and fish iconography in a mid-century interior setting. The composition feels at once intimate, theatrical, and psychologically evocative. Executed with confident brushwork, transparent layering, and a striking palette, this work rewards close viewing. The canvas measures 48” x 60”. The framed size is 50” x 62”.
