In Dr Fothergill's studio a room full of painting materials.There are easels leaning against the walls and paint tubes scattered on the floor.Dr Fothergill is sitting in front of a canvas and painting away and there is a knock on the door.Jason the art dealer and critic walked into the room.
Jason--"Hi Steve this is where it all happened.Is it? I have been busy for the last few weeks but I am here at last.Do you mind if I have a look around the place."
Dr F--" Feel free to do that Jason and when you finish looking will you give me your honest opinion of my work."
Jason--"I am already very much impress with your works.Let me have a good look at this one titled"Romeo and Juliet in Darkness"
He took the painting from the wall and start scrutinising it for a few minutes.
Dr F--"What do you think of it then?"
Jason--"It is very surreal and I could see that you have used symbolism to portray the meaning of love but there is an element of sadness in it."
Dr F--"I put a lot of emotions when I paint and all of myself in my works Jason.I try to reflect the inner feelings of the subject rather that the subject itself."
Jason--"I can see very clearly what you mean to say in this painting Steve.There is the female symbol in the sky above the crescent moon holding a red rose and a heart on fire and she is crying too.There is a male figure climbing the ladder up towards the moon but he is fending himself from the dark forces the serpents and the fire that consumed him from below.Which I gather he is having a tremendous struggle to reach the moon maiden his lover.There is a feeling of hopelessness in ther too that I can see."
Dr F--"You have interpret my painting very accurately.Well done Jason."
Jason--"I could arrange a exibition of your works in London Steve.How do you feel about that?"
Dr F--"If you think I am good enough for it but I still feel I am not ready to show my works to public yet."
Jason smile thinking of the commision he will have if the exibition is successfull.He is positive it is going to be.
