My Dearest Darling

(Available after December 31)

Pairs well with “Munich 1950”

Orange and blue abstract collage on 16 x 16 x 1.5 inch canvas.

I started with the color palette, and then improvised the composition, adding in pieces of my grandaddy’s letters to my grandmother in the 1940s. He was a pilot stationed in Munich during WW2. Since he passed when I was a toddler, I’ve gotten to know him through these letters which only came to me recently. So each of these pieces is infused with their love story.
