Degrees of Loneliness - #1, 10" x 10" mixed media by Susan Roden


 DEGREES OF LONELINESS - #1
10" x 10" round mixed media on wood

This is the current central piece within the 
collection of Degrees of Loneliness, which addresses
 the fallacy that all elderly people are depressed and 
lonely. The collection reflects landscapes and 
skyscapes in various stages of sunsets to indicate 
levels of depression. Statistics reveal that the 
percentage of depressed are actually very minimal.

#1 reflects an encroachment of sad emotions on
the right side, yet the gold leaf underneath and 
which grounds the shrubs, signifies the day is 
bright and hopeful.
