Here's yours truly again, about age 8, holding yet another fish. I worked to maintain a clear-cut and simple design while still leaving room for subtlety and a dreamlike quality.

Don't you find it a strange experience to look at yourself in a very old photo? For me it often triggers vivid memories, but at the same time it's like looking at someone I no longer know...who is/was that person? I wanted this painting to reflect something of the disembodied experience of time and memory.

Don, what you worked for you got man! Fabulous, emotive painting. However fed up we might sometimes get with this painting lark, sooner or later it pops up to surprise us with joy doesn't it.

Hi there, Sheila. Thanks very much for the encouragement, I'm happy this painting speaks to you. Happy Holidays to you.

Hi Don,
Another winner here. Great painting.
I completely agree with your words about seeing our long-gone selves in photos.
I keep thinking there is something profound about it, but can't quite find the words.
Perhaps it's best expressed in a painting!
Have a good day, Don.
Sincerely,
Gary.
