Description
Before I figured that a dead man is dead is dead is dead; I had an imagination.
My Grandfather died long time ago when I was a young boy. That time I did not know what happens to dead people after they are gone.
To make my life easier, mum told me that he went to a better place. I thought maybe he did not like our place that much anymore so he decided to leave. Being the first born, I was left with the huge task of trying to explain to my siblings where Grandpa went.
My story was one out of the storybooks they were used to. I told them that the old man had walked away to this huge forest where he had a small house; and that he would live there for the rest of his life in peace. He would be listening to crickets, birds and all sort of forest sounds in this better place.
This painting is dedicated to my Grandfather and all those who have died after him in the family and the whole World!
"Do not marvel at this, for the hour is coming when all who are in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out ..." John 5:28,29
