Spread 209 – Dark
12-13 December 2015
Vintage and personal items and images, matte medium, Nova Color paint, black ink.
From an early age I have always seen the brighter side of any situation. I have long developed survival skills enabling me to adapt to a adversity. Perhaps it is my ability to analyze people and situations from several angles at a moments notice. It takes skill to look deeper at a relationship, event or picture.
Lately I have come to realize I am the anchor in a very turbulent storm. Amazingly, looking back it would seem it has become my vocation all along in this life. It is a weary, exhausting job. Who do I lean on? I am tired. Perhaps I never will be able to.

This is fantastic Brian. I so understand everything you have shared as well. It is exhausting and often makes me want to run away, but then who would take care of everyone?
Thank you Tom!
