About the artwork

Original oil painting. My original sketch included hill side roof tops but somehow they confused the story or perhaps suggested assistance was available to over come the situation. The starkness and cool blue of the sky tinged with a touch of crimson relates to the isolation and sorrow created by the lovers quarrel and their refusal to compromise. The key suspended from the scaffold fixings marks the route from disaster and an avenue to unite them on the ground. For one to grasp the key would lead the other to open their heart and see sense.
