This painting was done from one of my husband’s photos. Kafe was a nouveau bohemian hole-in-the-wall coffee bar/art gallery that opened in our neighborhood during the period when my husband was just getting back into photography, and coincidentally becoming manic. It looked out on one of the most scenic antique turn-bridges in the state, which became the subject of many of my husband’s photos and my first digital darkroom efforts. We had our first photographic exhibition at Kafe in January, 2005, and it became an artistic focus for both of us during a very turbulent and productive period of our lives.
