Time and Tide
by
Francine Funke

Although I haven't posted to this blog for a while, I recently came across a painting, "Time and Tide," that renowned artist Francine Funke of Shelton, Connecticut had done for a solo exhibition in New York City at the Barbara Braathen Gallery. It is a powerful work and bespeaks of the maelstrom of turbulence that Hurricane Sandy wrought upon the NorthEastern coastal cities last week.
 
It might inspire you to reflect upon the force and power that has come with climate change -- or just feel the work visually, as the masterpiece that it is, measuring approximately seven feet by seven feet. The work belongs in a revered arts institution or in the spacious home of a knowledgeable collector. If it inspires you to donate to helping victims of Hurricane Sandy recover, then the work has served its purporse; to inspire.
