Commission

My college "bestie" asked me to make an art piece from a photo of her late husband in Hawaii. She photographed a few cards he'd written to her and notes he'd placed in their gratitude jar. I overlaid a light image of the stones over his handwriting and placed the words among the rocks in the foreground. It was a joy to work on this for her and also so sad to contemplate her loss (and be reminded of my own loss of my husband of 30+ years). Art Therapy.
