Description
The King is dead - The system (king) as we have known it for years is collapsing, the "sleepers" however do not realize their power, they mourn the loss of their "king"...it will take time before they regain their power and right of choice...inspired by the current situation in Italy, Europe and worldwide. This painting was born as a sketch for a possible work in oil...which I might paint once I manage to overcome this artist block that is preventing me from doing what I love most.

Another extraordinary creation from you. Reading the title, first think was : ''The king is dead. Long live the king.'' Then I read your description and I understood that your exquisite work has many more meanings, Simona. f,v
