Piece description from the artist
The title is mildly derived from a song by Tom Petty, of the same name. It was originally
inspired by the paintings of Winslow Homer during his 2-year stay in Cullercoats, England,
on the Eastern Coast. While there, he captured in paint many women waiting for their husbands
to arrive safely home from fishing at sea, oftentimes fraught with dangers of storms.
The Gothic Arch I added to reaffirm my beliefs in the sacredness of 'Waiting.' It is a routinely common, but sometimes very painful human condition.
Richard Green holds a Bachelor's degree in music and art history from the University of Minnesota, and a commercial art certificate from The Hennepin County Technical College. The 35mm camera he received for his seventh birthday was probably the catalyst which would eventually lead to a career in art direction and graphic design. He is a self-taught watercolor artist and oftentimes combines a variety of mediums, including a computer to achieve the effects he desires.
