"Old Piano" - sold

oil on gallery wrapped canvas

8"x 10"

This is a close up painting of my old spinet piano keys.

I inherited this piano from my dad and it was the piano

that I learned to play on. My dad and I were the only ones

that used it and every time I sit down to play a little tune

I am reminded of him playing his songs on a Sat. evening

(and sometimes the dog would howl too!)
