Table for One 9 x 12 inch mixed media on birch panel available on Etsy |
This was painted in October after a discussion with someone who lost her husband years ago when he was only in his 50's. She would not mind my telling you that she has never gotten over that loss, and now that she is 87, seeing him again is all she can think about. As I painted this I thought of how many have gone through this and that this is also what divorce looks like...because divorce is like death for many. These are bleak thoughts I know, but they are a reality of the world we live in.

I don't wish to spread a spirit of gloom, so let me point out that the chair next to her is empty...which leaves plenty of room for possibility.
