This is a painting I did of my Grandpa to remember him, and also to show how cruel Dementia is. Even though he was there when I painted this, he was gone at the same time. When we went to visit him at the home it was just his body; his soul had left.
He has now died, but it is a relief that he is not in pain any more.
