I love the quiet, thoughtful composition. The way all the items stand relatively to each other, the big deck of cards, the chair in the center, the kitchen cabinets that frame it; it’s at once purposeful and powerful. With the off-center glass of water and shuffled cards on each side as the sole, most expressive signs of human habitation in the picture. I also like the tonality, light, yet effective!
I just wish I could have been playing a game of Skip-bo on a lovely Spring day, somewhere in Canada, that day.
