This is gorgeous. The depths of the hues and the composition is stunning and deeply evocative. A painting, ambience, sentiment to get lost in while living. A poem indeed.

Much appreciated! Yes, she was very special... and /we/ were very fucked up.
But most of it was... wonderful.

I understand, deeply. Most of it usually is wonderful, whether at first or throughout. But as they say, hindsight is 20/20.

All the new paintings are inspiring and disturbing at the same time. I particularly like this one. Good work!

Now I want to read the poem:
Home is the sailor, home from the sea;
and the hunter, home from the hill.

Stevenson may have been quoting A.E. Housman.
Home is the sailor, home from sea:
Her far-borne canvas furled
The ship pours shining on the quay
The plunder of the world.
Home is the hunter from the hill:
Fast in the boundless snare
All flesh lies taken at his will
And every fowl of air.
'Tis evening on the moorland free,
The starlit wave is still:
Home is the sailor from the sea,
The hunter from the hill.

What great, rich colours! And I love your use of mixed media here; you can really see how the textures add to the composition as a whole. The contrast of the white to the dark background really allowed me to notice the writing on the white there; interesting! Great piece (:

Gorgeous blues, the amount of red is just the one needed to add another dimension to the piece. I like it very much.
