Serious Comedy

"O, woe the day." - Miranda 
Photo courtesy of Misti Atkinson. Painting by Rhett Murray. 
The photograph above is of a painting. The artist is my uncle, Rhett Murray. My aunt, Holly Atkinson Murray, posed as the model for Miranda - yes, she has long, curly, red hair. Yes, she is gorgeous. Yes, she knows it. Sorry, she is married. :) This painting hangs in my family's home and was, in fact, one of the reasons I was excited to read Shakespeare's The Tempest. My sister, Kristi, and I are reading The Tempest together. This painting highlights one of the concerns we had as we read Act 1 together.
