12x30" oil on canvas
A thousand little windows blew open.
This was painted on day one of youngest child away at college. She called to ask if it was weird not having her here. Let's see... she and I have lived together for six thousand, eight hundred and three days (give or take a few here and there). Yes! It's weird!...and extremely quiet. Hmm. It's only the first day.
