It all started with toast. My son asked me to make him toast this morning even though he is fully capable of making it himself. My husband makes me repeat myself several times a day. The feeling that overpowered me while starting this project was frustration. I kept asking myself "WHY WON'T THEY LISTEN TO ME???" I felt invisible. Over the course of this project, I began to think about how important TRULY listening is. It's a beautiful thing. This painting is a tribute to people who genuinely listen to others.
