Mike the ederly gentleman in the chair looks like he's contemplating the unknown. He sits in front of the door like he's wondering what's on the otherside. Maybe this painting is representative of an elderly person thinking about an afterlife. You see that exit sign in the left hand corner, interesting. There is something about this painting that reminds me of Norman Rockwell. Possibly it's that wall and the general informal atmosphere. I admire the way Rockwell painted portraits also, but thats another story.

Both of these paintings are brilliant, I like the drama and the color composition of the young woman.
