Elaine O. — October 2, 2021

Everyone seems to be doing before-and-after paintings, so I feel very au courant. This is the school I painted last week—several years later and under new ownership (rentership). I did this as a "visual vent," trying to express the wholly different vibe this school now gives off. I think I've come short of expressing the loud, angry feeling of the place, though, so I may ponder a bit more and try again. Meanwhile, here's the current school...


 ... compared to its previous incarnation of many decades. You can see there have been some changes, both to the physical plant and to its very soul.


And here they are, side by side but separated by more than just a few years.
