Empty. Absent. Oftentimes conversations can be empty, especially when two differing points of views come together. This is what I see as the political discourse in this country. It doesn’t matter what the truth is, people don’t want to hear it.

really lovely simple illustration. how true too about the level of discourse in this country
A poignant piece. Truthfully, I would never have pegged this painting as a confrontational political statement, but maybe I’m seeing things too narrowly. Nevertheless, I love the mood of this picture, and the icy colors that offer a clarity beyond words. Simply beautiful.
ps: I’ve been a lurking fan of your amanobooks site for a long while now. I think I found your site on Philobiblon. Cheers.
beautiful illustration. the colors have connected it to your statement.
The political discourse in my country is it doesn’t matter what the truth is, the Government doesn’t want to hear it.
VERY nice oil painting 🙂
