| My mother doesn't like this picture, as it shows a house being destroyed, and this brings to mind the people who lived here, and so on - loss of home, possibly loss of life, definitely loss of treasured possessions. A tragedy, there is no doubt about it. But although of course I realize those things, I thought of it only as something mysterious and beautiful when I drew this. It's really not that I wasn't aware of the tragic aspects of this event, but in fact that kind of background makes the beautiful fire and the astounding change in appearance of the place all the more fascinating. If it were a picture of wood burning safely inside a fireplace, it wouldn't make you think so much and feel so much. |
