Thanksgiving was over and all that was left of the spiral-cut ham was the bone and the memory. I thought I'd do a portrait of the remains after I was done with the dishes. My family didn't understand. To them, it was a piece of garbage. To my dog, it was a mouthwatering temptation. To me, it was a sculpture, a monument, a work of art!

My hands were washing dishes but my mind was combining cadmium red and terra rosa, with maybe a drop of mauve blue shade...
Over the days that it took to paint, the countenance of the ham bone changed; it seemed to get thinner and darker. Hamlet, on the other hand, maintained the exact same expression during the vigil, never even blinking.
