This painting was in memory of one of Martha's friends. It was sold at a show and benefit at the Breckenridge Fine Arts Center in December 2009-January 2010.
I remember being fascinated by this painting when I first saw it as a teenager. I didn't know what sepia was at the time and the notion of a painting in variations of one color (brown) seemed avant-garde! In dim light, the painting looks almost like a flat brown rectangle. But under light, the flowers and background curtain emerge as a ghostly image.
