Let it Out!

This is a detail of the painting we call "Group Therapy". Our friend Paul found it at a garage sale in Skokie, Il. He bought it from the painter, Bernard Strauss. We have two more of his paintings, but this is the most accomplished. The full painting shows a group of 12 figures sitting in a circle watching with varied responses as the young man takes out his frustration on a pillow. It's large and rather confrontational and hangs in our dining room.
