Prompt Response
This is Anne. We were college roommates in 1999. We have remained close friends over the years. A few years ago, she found out that her husband had cheated on her, and was leaving her and her four boys, for another woman. When she found out, it was Fall in Utah. She went out and bought many tulip bulbs. She said it was really important that something be tucked into the cold, like she was about to be tucked into the dark cold. She knew she would one day be well, and be better, but that day was not soon. These tulips have become a metaphor for her life path. The tulips in the painting are drawn and not painted, as they represent the hope she holds for personal growth and beauty.
