Place of Departure

I was working on my series, "Disturbing The Spirits" when my parents suddenly died. Place of Departure is the work I have done since….. I feel that my life has fundamentally changed; but sometimes all seems the same. Where did my father go? Are my parents now united? What does a life mean after it leaves it's body? Does the life-force rise and connect the terrestrial with the celestial or does it evaporate into thin air? These are the questions I am grappling with as I begin my new series; I hope to find my way to an understanding. I now speak with clouds, the earth...with trees. Words fail me.
