The frame for this painting is a found object, actually a desk drawer.
Never Children:
I utilized the drawer as a frame for many reasons, the beauty of the wood being one. Mainly, I chose it because the shape was evocative of a reliquary or a place for displaying a sacred object.
In a sense, drawers are where we store scared objects, memories, often in the form of photographs.
