India ink. I really want this full-viewed cuz I want it to take up your whole screen. The blank white needs to feel enveloping.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They didn't die. They rummaged through their things, looking for stuff to salvage. It was mostly to pass the time and delay recognition of the reality that their home was gone. Even if they found stuff, what could they do with it? They had no place to live, much less keep their things.

Sure, they could walk in and out of the door of their ravaged home. But that was it. All other doors were closed. The door to their broken home might as well have been bolted shut. People were sympathetic only in so much as was convenient. Their doors were still closed.

This is a piece dedicated to people who lost their homes in Katrina. No cities really wanted to take in the refugees. People lived in big camps for months on end. It was really tragic.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Donate to a disaster relief fund. Just pick one and give a couple dollars.

I did this as a demo-piece for a class I was teaching, but it ended up being pretty meaningful to me.
