Moment of Understanding: Inspired by It’s a Wonderful Life
Watercolor, gouache on paper

When I was little, this moment of Frank Capra’s movie, the moment when George Bailey realizes he’s never been born, frightened me. But as I’ve grown up, I’ve also grown to love this moment of understanding. (Please note: if you have not seen It’s a Wonderful Life, none of what I just wrote will make sense.)
