Lynanne and I used to live at the Lucky Strike building in Richmond, and we both loved the train. Across the street was Chapel Island and from time to time, we'd walk over there. One day while walking along the path that literally leads to a dead end, we saw a path that led into the woods. Take it and see where it goes? Why not? So we did...
And we came to the train tracks. We began to walk back home and when we turned around, the sun lit up the side of the trains and the tracks and she took a photo that I just had to paint. We were going through a particularly rough patch at the time, but this was one of those moments where nothing mattered. We were together and dammit this painting brings back some of the warmest memories I have with her.
This painting is sold already, but can be reproduced if interested.
