CHUCK REMEMBER ME PLEASE
CHUCK REMEMBER ME PLEASE is an 8x6 thing on heavy paper. I made it starting with a b&w snapshot of someone named Chuck. He wrote on the back of it in blue ink, “Remember Me, Chuck.” I reproduced the signature and on the front of the photo. The original signature is below the snap. I’m guessing it was the late 40s or so. There is sadness in that face. And I, being a sentimental fool, found the inscription moving. So, it fit my wabi-sabi series. Won’t rehash wabi-sabi for the dozen or so peeps who see my stuff. Read about wabi on my Artspan site, peterjketchum.com. And thanks for remembering Chuck.
The background is an adapted Ellsworth Kelly painting. The wabi stamp is on the upper left. #snapshot #foundphoto #remembrance #wabisabi #memorial #peterjketchum #ketchumart
