my daughters have reminded me, that when i would come home after a long day of advertising. i would just sit on the couch, throw everything down and say, ‘just give me 10 minutes.’ i would then just sit silently and stare at the wall and breathe.

Excellent painting, very real to life. I feel sorry for her, she looks like a tired, worn out housewife, who could do with a shoulder to cry on and a good holiday! 🙂
