Family Over Everything
Back to PaintingsThis piece is built around a lyric Kenneth Orr has always loved. It’s from an Elton John song, and it’s something he’s often thought about when looking at his family. If you look closely, the letters are made up of photos—snapshots from different times in their life together. Some are old, some are recent, but each one is part of the story. The words hit differently when they’re literally filled with the people you love. For Kenneth, this painting is personal. It’s about how lucky he feels just to share a life with them.
