Desire
2005 Oil on Canvas 53cm x 91.5cm |

Is there something you desire strongly? Something you want so badly? There are times in our lives when we desire something. For some of us the desire is not always there but for the rest of us we almost always desire something. And when we desire, it burns so badly until we get it. The heat of desire never engulfs us but it does get really hot sometimes. |
