Picture of "Sunset" on display

I wasn't able to attend the opening of the LOVE exhibit at South Shore Art Center but my friend did and sent me this photo of my work on display.  I was pleased to receive it as well as to see its placement and delighted to know that it is out there to be seen!
This piece is one of several I did having been inspired by the writing of Raymond Carver.  The short story "What we talk about when we talk about love" was the work I tied this to.
 My favorite aspect of this piece is the depth at the table.  It says something about coming together and exchanging with others.  I feel some safety in the spot created within the frame.

More Sunset

I did lots of drawings before I started the "Sunset" picture.  Here's one in ink on paper.  I recall trying to work out the perspective.  The cabinets here have handles which for some reason I mustn't have thought necessary in the final piece.
