Farewell

18X24 inches, Acrylic paint

Farewell explores the tension between looking back on a life fully lived and confronting an approaching departure. A Cadillac taillight reflects a brilliant sunset, transforming an ordinary automotive detail into a symbol of transition. The polished vehicle suggests achievement and movement, while the fading light and rear-facing taillight evoke departure and finality. These opposing associations create a moment suspended between continuation and ending. Through light, reflection, and symbolism, the painting considers the quiet emotions surrounding change, separation, and the act of moving forward.
