Rainy Day Paintings Artist Statement

Sitting on her bed
On a hand-me-down quilt
Colors glow gold in the lamplight

Music on the record-player
Slow, sweet, sad, and soulful
Raindrops roll endlessly down the window glass

Musical instruments,
Made by human hands
To be held by human hands

Pictures on the wall show places visited, lives lived

Bedspread, books, a shirt on the floor,
An intimate portrait of a human life
