The Loss

Oil painting on linen 20 in. X 30 in. / 50 cm. x75 cm.



The husband of my friend had died suddenly. It left her inconsolable. My painting is the testimony of her strong love for him and her deep sorrow after her loss. To show her distress, I had her to clutch at his shirt, wears his watch in her wrist and she is dressed in a blouse and a scarf that he had offered to her.
