So here is my first little (post kid) oil painting project.  The duo was based on squares from a little quilt I made a while back.  Upon closer examination the quilt seemed to be sort of fresh and hopeful.  However in the process of putting the oil paint layers on I realized that I had to bury that dream.  I guess having those failed ideals of home and nesting buried in this painting is good.  I now have ruminated on the experience, changed my expectations and hung the duo over the fireplace at my new digs.
