Oil on canvas painting by Gregory John entitled That Old Black Dog. Winston Churchill used to have this saying 'that old black dog. . depression', as he was a sufferer. When your depressed its as though you become a member of the undead, its so hard to engage with life. The painting is me sat on a transit box experiencing that isolating feeling depicted by the dog next to me. The state of mind becomes real and people around you become like ghosts, reality fades away. This painting and Dust to Dust were painted one after the other and encapsulate the same emotion. Buy this painting as an art poster, a canvas print or a framed print.
