IF: Memories


Somewhere, in the depths of my mind is a room. It sits, still and calm, until a familiar smell, a melodious song, or joyous scene triggers the retrieval of a memory that was filed away in years past.


This was very hastily executed, but I like the idea so when I get more time, I'm going to try to paint this again.

    Great concept I agree. And I love the over all design and color contrast.

    Great job!

    For being hastily done I think the execution was fantastic! The use of the classified ads was a great idea.

    I love this. I imagine that when the drawer or file is opened there are amazing colors that burst out. I love the color choice too. Great job.

    Highly concpetual piece!
    Wow! A great challenge to climb the slender ladder reaching almost the top for memories.
    Love the theme of a series of drawers drawn in the monotone finish that represent many past memories behind....

I love hearing from you all, so comment away! I will do my best to respond, but if I haven't, it's probably because I'm teaching my kids, or am knee deep in paint, or have lost my mind.
