There was a curved day
There was a day when I was your hero, there was a day when I was your teacher, when I was your security, your advisor, your friend, your guide and your world... I want you to know that I live to serve you, that you are my life, that no matter what, I will always be waiting for you to hug you again. With all my love, Your Dad

Letter from a Father to his Son (a).
There was a curved day
×Imagine standing before a work that captures the purest essence of paternal love. Visualize a concave panel, bathed in the purity of white acrylic, serving as a canvas for a father's deepest words. Words that transcend ink, resonating in the soul, evoking memories of shared moments and lessons taught. "There was a day when I was your hero, your teacher," the letter begins, an invitation to explore the unwavering paternal figure through a visual and emotional journey.
This visual narrative is enriched by nine paintings, each a window into the majesty of the Lebanese cedar, a symbol of strength and endurance, a metaphor for a father's unconditional love. The mixed media of oil, acrylic, and gold leaf gives each painting a unique dimension, interweaving art and heritage in a dance of light and shadow.
With its generous dimensions, this tangible testimony of paternal love transcends the limits of its physical structure, becoming a message of eternal love. "I want you to know that I live to serve you, that you are my life," the letter continues, each phrase a reflection of a father's eternal commitment, a promise of support and unconditional love.
Now, I invite you, who have the honor of contemplating this work, to allow this letter from a Father to his Son to be a reminder of the purest and truest love. May each line, each stroke of the cedar tree, be an echo of that unwavering love that always waits, always forgives, always embraces.
This tribute to fatherhood is more than a work of art; it's a piece of heart, a legacy of love, and a reminder of the unbreakable bond between a father and his son. When you contemplate "Letter from a Father to His Son," you carry with you a piece of life, a message of love and hope.
I encourage you to appreciate and reflect on the bonds that define us, shape us, and sustain us. Every time you gaze upon this panel, may you feel the warmth of a fatherly embrace, that gentle yet firm strength that guides and protects us. With profound respect and admiration for the love that has inspired this work, I present to you "Letter from a Father to His Son."
