DiaryOfAWorm: Anniversary of a Death


Deadlast by Peter

Today, the first anniversary of our son’s death, my wife and I talked about the good memories of our son. We decided to do more with all the beautiful art work he left behind. Until we complete the work you can enjoy Peter’s Art on his web site. Be sure to take a look at the digital art slideshow on Flicker on this page. Peter’s art, line drawings, digital art or paintings speak volumes about his experience of life. Peter saw deeply into life and it was very painful for him. As I found out since his death there is blessing walking in the shadow of death. I always told Peter that I had learned a lot about life from him. I do not know if he believed me or not but I certainly know it is true now and he does too.

On the way to visit our other son and his family today we stop by the cemetery that has the niche with Peter’s ashes. We had written on it below and his name and his life dates: “Beloved son, friend and artist.” My wife thought the phrase sound a little funny now, especially the word artist. I do not. Peter was not a recognized artist but his visual art was his way of expressing his inmost thoughts and emotions. At that he excelled and he was a great artist.

Just thinking of his art inspires me to put more pictures and quotes on this web page. Perhaps I can put some quotes with my own photographs.

Check out at Peter’s Art on this anniversary of his death.
