Lovers

"just beyond the shimmer of light their bodies
roseate glistened;
bringing ineffable peace, and the gladsome
return with the night of all things that morning
ruthlessly parted, the child to its mother,
lover to lover.”
- Fragments from Sappho
An experimental painting focused on intimacy at its core, devoid of gender and the other categories we use to categorize and demean love.
Oil on canvas, 9 x 12 in.
