"Sad Goodbye" Image: I finger painted this piece during the AIDS crisis which was relentlessly desecrating wonderful people all over the World. I was losing many friends! This is an emotional portrait of a man with whom I worked, in Dallas, and whom I watched waste away. This is an homage to him. This figure has his eyes closed and arms crossed as if in death.
