I can sort of make out a "grey alien"-like face with the two dark spots at the top being the eyes.

What's the new theory?

I think its a good to exercise the subconscious by looking for faces in paintings. I've done close to ten thousand paintings like the one above and the most common thing people see is faces. I think exercsing the brain this way teaches a person to turn there emotions on and off to scenes and hallucinations caused by pareidolia. I even believe a few of my paintings are prophecy because of the arbitrary use of the paintbrush I use to make them.

   Looks like a lady from the Victorian era turned slightly away from us.
