About the Image(s)
The empty store room is one of a series of remarkable feats connected with my upcoming move to a new condo. Photoshop’s Remove Tool cleaned up the store room with ease. The books shown in the Original are a proxy for the actual books I used because I can’t find the image of the original books. Part of the hazards of moving. There is no intended story here, hence the “Untitled” title.

Hi Alan, the feel of loneliness in the image makes my heart ache. It is the bare walls, the empty chair opposite, and the pose of the woman, and the muted colors that are repeated through the image. I am so glad she still has the books to give her support and connect her to the world. It is interesting to compare the two lonely women in your and Peggys images, one firmly connected to her books and the other who seems at least for the moment indifferent to the paintings surrounding her. - Is there a tiny bit of a blue background left in the cut-out of the woman round her upper arm?
