I thought I would keep this picture in my "landmark picture" collection, and for many years I did have it on the wall of my own house. But in 2013 I tried putting it out into the world, at a worthy price, and somebody wanted to buy it. I miss it but I am glad to think of it now hanging on a wall in another house, and hopefully enjoyed every day.
If I stop to think about that process - of these very personal images that usually are quite painstakingly dragged out of the depths of my soul (..it's really true, though it sounds over dramatic...), flying off into another life, then I start thinking how amazing it is. The most astonishing and strange thing is that each person who looks must have their own specific vision of each picture, and I can never know exactly what others see.
This is a picture of two real people in a real place, but I won't say who they are or where, so that anyone can have their own imaginings.
