Picket Fences

8×10

This is a theme I paint all the time. I’ve always looked out windows or through fences, imagining and yearning to be part of that life. I spent years imaging that I would be happy if I lived there or was there.

Now, I am fascinated by this feeling when it happens. It reminds me that I am here, as I reflect on the sweetness of a young girl who dreamed of being a part of a magical world. I love the nostalgia and my obsession with a view and how it can elevate and inspire.
