THIS BOX IS NOW SOLD. FINAL BID $750.00. 

Artist Statement: The box is painted with chalkboard paint and drawn on with chalk/soft pastels. Since it's on chalkboard, it's kind of like being back in school and it's one of the days lessons. It's title is really what it's all about, in that the art work can easily be erased or wiped off (with a damp cloth). After having a heart attack it became even clearer to me how impermanent we all are. As artists, I think most of us are trying to make art work that will last well after we have moved on, but this piece is all about non attachment to what we think should last forever. The body will die and the only think that is forever is the wondrous connection that we all have to the Creator. Because we all are the Creator.
