"I am the Earth underneath the snow. I need to feel the sun and wind. The long winter should end. But winter is my only friend. He melts.. he sinks in my skin. He is in me. We can not part. I can not let him go..."
I made this painting in December 2011. It was the last winter with my Mom. I was looking at her ill body and this view from the window. It all felt sad and still does. It hurts.. I don't speak about my Mom and rarely share any memory. Bits of memories only resurface with tears that burn. Tears that melt the snow. But I don't want the snow to go..
