Don the Shaking Palsy
oil, acrylic, and charcoal in wood
This is Don Currie. He is struggling with Parkinson's. It is striping him. The man he is, is slipping away. People robbed him using a bitcoin scam taking large sums of his money he earned selling the first forms of accounting software to Australian businesses.
His wife and the mother of their children, left him soon after the theft, not speaking to him anymore, even though they are at the same retirement
village. He was worried why Inwood asked him to sit for a portrait and said "Is he trying to paint starving prisoners of war?"
Through all of this pain Don sat for his portrait and joyfully regaled the highs and lows of his life with Inwood, and in a unconscious fraction of a moment he grasped with both hands at a lost thought. Click. What beauty.
