Always Somewhere Else

Title: Always Somewhere Else Artist: Danny Gordo Medium: oil on aluminum Year: 2026 Size: 48 x 24 inch (121.92 x 60.96 cm) Artist Statement: Hope is an essential part of being human. It allows us to imagine a better future and reminds us that life is still unfolding. The trouble begins when the future becomes so compelling that it steals our experience of the now. There are many ways to leave the present without ever taking a step. We do it whenever we're convinced that life will begin once we've reached whatever lies just beyond us. Hope keeps us moving forward. Gratitude keeps us connected to the present. The difficulty isn't choosing one over the other. It's learning not to lose one in pursuit of the other. Details: This original artwork is a one-of-a-kind oil painting on a 48 x 24 inch aluminum panel framed in an ornate black wood frame.
