“Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.”
Henry David Thoreau
This last week while rummaging through some old boxes I came across this painting “Daybreak”. I painted this in 2008 and promptly forgot about it. I don’t know why this happened. It is unusual for me to forget about a work. It is a rediscovered gem of a painting, petit at 7″ x 5″, and captures daybreak on a southern New Jersey beach. I remember the trip well, it rained almost the entire time.
This painting was somewhat different than how I was painting at the time. It turns out, eight years later, to be how I am painting now. A subconscious reach into the future. Perhaps that is why I “lost” it. I was not ready to see it for what it is…

Wow, that’s deep, Roger. I suspect this could apply to our lives as we get glimpses of things that we fail to recognize or we deny only to encounter them some time later in our lives. Thanks.
Henry David was on target, thanks Ginger.
