Description
This is a painting from a series of paintings I did about my father, a jazz musician, who died from dementia. Throughout the series, I use the elephant as a symbol for dementia. This painting is about how we have to say goodbye each time we lose a piece of our loved one to the disease - whether it be to their ability to say our name, or use the bathroom, or walk,or feed themselves, or finally, when we have to say the ultimate goodbye. This painting is featured in my book, Fractured Memories: Because Demented People Need Love, Too. It chronicles my family's heartbreaking and hilarious journey through my dad's dementia and includes 40 paintings.
