Acrylic on Archival Gessobord with 2" Birch Sides, 40 x 30", Ready to hang!
I wonder what it was like living at a time when you weren't aware of every catastrophic thing that was going on in the world. No wonder that my 87-year-old mother is very concerned for the state of the world today. In the last year I've been reading several books on the 1930s and 1940s and I'm pretty sure, the state of the world was really, really frightening, chaotic and difficult. The people of that era didn't have the access to global information that we do today. There was a protective buffer of sorts. There is one thing that is true since human history began; we are capable of great violence. We are also capable of great love. Today's painting is called "Opposing Forces" and will hang with the rest of my upcoming exhibit "The Human Condition, the Human Spirit: Wreckage & Beauty." To see the progressive steps of this painting, see my Feb. 4th post. Exhibit will run March 15-May 15, 2014 at Luther Seminary, St. Paul, MN.
