A FLASH OF GOLD
Walking around the studio.
A flash of light caught his attention, reflected by the gold leaf.
Cheekily, I suggested he could have a picture of his home.
HOW DID YOU KNOW?
A few months later.
On seeing the finished artwork, he went quiet.
He spent a long time looking at it.
As Rory turned around, I noticed a tear rolling down his cheek.
"How did you know? … It was my father's last creation before he passed away."
To this day, that picture hangs in his study.
