Chiaroscuro: an upcoming exhibition; the paintings, the stories

We lived near the park. It was an older house, they had not bothered to upgrade the heating system to accommodate the second floor being converted to a separate apartment. But in the late spring and early fall, the little front porch, barely big enough for two chairs was the perfect vantage point to watch the world go by. I lived here not quite two years, before heading west towards what I hoped would be a brighter future. My time in Northampton was not all dark, but neither was it the shining existence I’d hoped for.
