After a Stroke: Sun in an Empty Room

Still life (painting), there's still life...As in the hope of recovery. Hopper helped me get through some of the roughest patches of my post-episode convalescence. I know he's seen as a painter of loneliness, but the trinity of light is crucial.

"Whether we like it or not, we are all bound to the earth with our experience of life and the reactions of the mind, heart, and eye, and our sensations, by no means, consist entirely of form, color, and design." Edward Hopper, age 81

(This lightest of yellows is the exact color of my bedroom and the light falls in similar parallelograms).
