"How About Dinner?" an Oil Painting with Hidden Social Commentary

I am always intrigued by the ways in which viewers interpret my abstract paintings.  At a recent show a friend responded to this painting as very European.  Not sure why--perhaps the fish which looks as if it has come from the market.  I was very flattered--I love Europe and would like to spend more time in France and Italy.  From my point of view I see the painting as a commentary How about Dinner 2
on the way that  our lives have become very separated from  as a result of technology.  We still want social contact, but now there is a distance that has to be overcome.  Hopefully, we still take time to talk over dinner.
