i painted this picture from a ravine i saw in Simi Valley. during an exhibition a woman stood in front of it for a long time. she proceeded to tell me a story about her difficult life as a child in Asia, where the only comfort she felt was at the lake behind the house. she said i had painted that place. her companion came by shortly after the story and she asked him, what this was a painting of, he replied, "the lake in the back of the house". the painting's name was changed from "ravine" to "the lake in the back". this couple knew the location better than i did myself.
