‘Despair of Fathers Lost’ (2024) acrylic on canvas panel - 841 x 594 mm

“I am a father, I should have been there. I should have listened, I should have seen the pain that I was inflicting. They deserved so much better, they deserved my love, my affection, my time, my attention. And now it’s too late, I am lost. I am without them and they are without me.”
