Girl At Table

I saw a film about a woman who was alone with a mountain of responsibilities. She coped rather well, but there was a point when she realized that there has to be more to life than constantly putting out fires and confronting conflicts.

She’s sits by herself contemplating the reality that is her life. I wanted to elicit that same feeling in this painting. It is small but powerful. I think that someone views this, it will perhaps trigger a memory of their own experience in everyday life that they sometimes feel overwhelmed. They’ll sit back and try to figure the next step in our evermore complicated lives. This is an acrylic on canvas panel that is another one of my personal favorites
