The Theater

11x14 oil painting 

  I was once told that I paint people and things like the ice cream sundae version. I think whey eyes are luxurating over the scene or the person, I'm enjoying the symphony of life as she presents herself to my gaze. 

  The pink light of the fading day immersed the thoughtfully laid table in her last light. the candlelight valiantly fights for its on mini theater sets on the table. The candlelight lands triumphantly on the tablecloth and the rim of a glass. All of this is happening as a handsome dinner guests watches the same grand battle as the day resigns the orange light to the blue of the night.
