I'm Back Again! "Samina"

Acrylics on framed canvas about 40x50 cm. Year 1992 (?). Not available.

I had some jobs to do the last days, so I was absent from painting. Now I'm back, but for a couple of weeks maybe the posts will be rare. 

This painting, one of my few abstracts, is really sad, although the colors look happy... At September, 26 of 2000, into the cold, salted waters of the Aegean sea, the greek ship "Samina" was sunk and 80 people were drawn... I was really shocked and this "happy" painting was the last Good Bye to the innocent people. Some of the lost were familiar to me. Among them, were kids and young mothers. All of them were victims of human stupidity...
