This landscape was created for the painting classes. I wrote a poem about this old couple living in the middle of the city, surrounded by buildings. My office was in one of these buildings where I could see from my window the old couple. Spring of 1999. Raleigh NC.

Poem:

“Memories of a White House”

White was the house
green were the trees
memories of a long life left behind
the noise of activity, every day rush was gone…
long ago.

The only thing left was the old couple
in the silence of age,
embraced on a clear spring morning
by the friendly music of their birds
and the bright colors of fresh flowers.

About Lea DeV:

Born in Cape Town, South Africa to an American mother and South African father, Lea developed a deep love for her beautiful home country early in life. Her mother and father were active in the anti-apartheid movement and Lea met many notable resistance fighters as a child, including Nelson Mandela.

With the violence in South Africa and the target on her father, Lea and her mother came to Raleigh, NC while Lea was a Freshman in high school. Although she never lived in South Africa again, she visited every year while her father was alive and proclaimed South Africa as the most beautiful place in the world.

Lea battled breast cancer but lost the fight in 2011. She will always be remembered for her big laugh, love of life, and her artistic talent.
