Description
This is a small original abstract watercolor painting on a watercolor paper. Artwork inspired by the refugee time. The following is a Margaret Atwood's quote from her book "The Handmaid's Tale" which I borrowed the title for this watercolor when I painted it in 2013. ... I came through the handmaid's mirror ... I am a refugee from the past, and like other refugees I go over the customs and habits of being I've left or been forced to leave behind me, and it all seems just as quaint, from here, and I am just as obsessive about it ... I wander back, try to regain those distant pathways; I become too maudlin, lose myself. Weep. Weeping is what it is, not crying ... I am weeping about my lost youth; I'm staring into the mirrors and repeating the same words: It was so great. It was so great....
