"We Have Wandered
Far"
Homesick Mermaid Dreams of Life
from which she has been Separated
This painting was done when I found myself landlocked in Colorado,
after living by the sea for many years. My yearning for the water
world was great and painful. Seeing fish in an aquarium made me
cry. My skin was so dry, it cracked and bled. I felt like the
proverbial "fish out of water". Though this painting
is specific regarding my circumstances, I also feel it applies
to the distance we put between ourselves and our true natures,
in general.
