"The
model for the painting is my wife's youngest daughter Kasha, who lived with us
when we first married. It is not a real likeness, since I deliberately changed
the face, but it is still definitely Kasha. Kasha is poised to leave home in the
painting. Symbolic I guess. She's holding a lovely pottery pitcher which was the
first thing her mother and I bought for our home together. We purchased it on
a trip to Santa Fe the first summer of our marriage.
The painting is so soft,
quiet and bright, like a new home without furniture. I like that! However, the
design needed some balance. I tried other flowers, exhibited the painting, didn't
like the flowers, rubbed them out and than painted these.
This little painting
was done on a lovely little stained piece of wood - Just the tiniest hit of the
wood still shows through in places."
