A few days ago i was in a cab, being driven home, and we come into a trailer park (not the skanky ones everyone has come to think of, a nice one for older people) and I saw something i would love to paint.
two trailers, with windows, with afternoon sun shining in, both with curtains, one lace, one red, and in the exact same spot, two older women sitting, with curled hair, one red, one blonde (showing the white and thinness of their age) resting their elbows on a chair arm, smoking cigarettes.
i just loved how they were the same. it was brilliant.
anotther thing that touched my heart, was this couple that came in the restaurant and got the same thing. poutine and strawberry milkshake. first i thought it was a man and a wo,man. and they were holding hands across the table and staring into eachothers eyes... and then... i realized it was both women. it made me happy, seeing a lesbian couple together, lovingly, in this city. it was wonderful.
