Message from the Artist:
Ache has been gelling for some time now – recently, I was working on a completely different painting when the composition for Ache suddenly sprang out – I switched canvases and immediately began painting Ache. This is a wod I sometimes use to describe my feelings toward wanting my boys to stay small foreer, yet longing to see who they’ll become – yet knowing that when they are grown, I’ll ache for these young years again. My heart does flip flops when I get into this vein of thought, and I’m reminded to focus on the now.
