social distance

I suppose this painting is a slightly surreal ballad on long distance social interaction, in these strange times.

Some humor, some sadness.. partly a celebration of youthful energy and looking towards travel, possible romance, and the future.

I've taken care to paint the edges, so you can hang it flush on the wall - the modern way -
or frame it to suit your space.

Fairly glossy with canvas texture, as it is varnished.
