Descent is part of my Noir Collection. It represents a man who realizes he has lived his life in vain. It was inspired by the following quote from the film noir movie "Night and the City."

"You could have been anything. Anything. You had brains…ambition. You worked harder than any ten men. But the wrong things. Always the wrong things..." - Gene Tierney as Mary Bristol in Night and the City - 1950

Materials: Watercolor on paper in an antique frame

Expressing suppressed emotions through body language

When I was nineteen, my childhood sweetheart (now my husband) gave me a watercolor set for Christmas. That gift would become my saving grace.

When we married, our son was seven months old. I was a sophomore in college. Our marriage was turbulent. Balancing work, marriage, motherhood, and college was taking its toll.

One night, I was extremely overwhelmed. I wanted to cry. But, the tears would not come. I had suppressed my emotions for so long they had forsaken me in my time of need.

I looked at myself in the mirror. I thought, “How can I get this pain out of me?” Then my soul whispered, “Paint it.” So, I took the watercolor set out of the closet and began to paint. I painted with my heart and not my eyes. All the emotions I had suppressed came to the surface. The canvas cried the tears my eyes refused to shed.

My tears took the form of a female figure. Faceless yet full of raw emotion. That night, I found my artistic voice. And my soul began to shout!

Painting is my saving grace. It is a faithful, non-judgmental confidant. Through art, I can openly cry without shedding a tear. Now, I no longer hide my vulnerability from the world. I paint it boldly on every canvas.
