I was taken by a documentary on the life of Mr. Rogers of American children's television fame. Through his show he was an advocate of civil rights, honoring diversity, etc. His favorite number was 143, his normal body weight and a number that symbolized the words "I love you", 'I' having 1 letter, 'love' having 4, 'you' having 3 letters. These words have been said since humans began to use words, so I used ancient and contemporary numbers to say it again on canvas in homage to Mr. Rogers.
