She does oil paintings of houses -- both exteriors, interiors and neighborhoods. Interesting to strictly paint one thing.

I never thought simple paintings of model homes could be so depressing until I have seen this. I mean.. the names of the paintings themselves remind me of really depressing shoegaze music and someone always dying or feeling malcontent with life...lol.


"I am Begging You" just looks like the husband is about to give her divorce papers and shit, right before he goes to work, and she just whispers those words inbetween sobs or some shit.

The paintings do have the common thread of melancholy at its finest.

Many of the paintings look old or are painted in an outdated style. The only modern thing I really noticed as I skimmed the paintings were a couple power lines and a car. Interesting considering just about everything is modernized or electronic these days.

Also, I love how everyone here talks about how much they love music and art and ignore threads like these.
