This
extraordinary painting, entitled, “Day After Summer”
gives a new meaning to realism, of such magnificent
completeness. |

| A skate left abandon, lies leisurely to a hypnotic summer breeze, as innocence releases its grip from the distant sounds of children, as life to death foreshadowed in a fallen toy soldier, reposing within a world of trust in an era of unquestioning belief, emblemized in a coca cola bottle cap of a post war era, fades into the seasons, in fallen leaves. A ball invites a game of jacks with only a single jack, a precursor of things to come, prismatic light in the memories of a passing day that still play under shaded trees. | ||||||||||
