I've learned last month, that certain life's situations can take you into different directions both physically and emotionally. Sometimes leaving you drained and lifeless in it's wake. Early last month during the time that I was to finish this painting, my husband passed away on June 5, 2012 after a long battle with cancer. I wanted to paint this scene as a gift of my love to him. Having always loved the water, he enjoyed sitting gazing out across it, saying how peaceful it was. Before he died, he was able to see this painting even though it wasn't quite finished yet, he quickly called it, Safe Harbour, a place of refuge. My comfort now is knowing that he's in his own Safe Harbour and as for this painting, it's one that I will always hold a most special place in my heart always.
Today I'm posting this special painting as a tribute to him and to also say, Happy Birthday Love. He would have turned 63 today.
