Description
Original Oil Painting by Doug Kreuger
White Lace and Promises Abandoned
This painting reflects the story of a neglected marriage where romance and dreams once bloomed. Still, an underlying beauty and attraction continue to linger... With a bit of tender loving care this garden will bloom again. Until that time comes, let this artwork serve as a reminder of past promises, present brokenness and an undying hope for lasting true joy.
