I am honoured that one of my Chinese Brush Paintings with a Canadian theme has found a new home in the private collection of King Edward, Busoga Region in Uganda.
The painting ‘Going Home’ is very personal to me. A number of years ago, my adult daughter, and only child, was driving alone late one night in Canada’s far north. We were chatting on the phone when my daughter described a beautiful snowy scene that appeared as she was driving. She said it was so beautiful, but even the beauty of the land couldn’t keep her from wanting to ‘go home’. A mother’s silent tears fell and upon finishing our conversation I immediately started to paint the scene described, which is now ‘Going Home’.
