Painted this weekend while contemplating one of the warmest, most compassionate people I know who very recently suffered a devastating loss. The warmth of the sun playing on the cold of the snow… And the whole time I was painting, a line from a song (it’s the only line I know from that song) kept looping through my brain “We found love in a hopeless place.” The person in mind and the person they lost are both the type of people who can flood a room, building, community – with hope, with love.
