Heartbreak Hotel
40 X 30 oil on panel
SOLD by Robert Lange Studios Charleston, SC
Exhibited by Robert Lange Studios in the Attention To Detail show
Robert Lange Studios
SOLD
This is a verse from the song Heartbreak Hotel made famous by Elvis Presley.
Well, since my baby left me
Well, I found a new place to dwell
Well, it's down at the end of Lonely Street
At Heartbreak Hotel
Where I'll be-where I get so lonely, baby
Well, I'm so lonely
I get so lonely, I could die
This painting of the "Heartbreak Hotel" was very complex in the shadow lines and the layer upon layer of red paint that it took to give the depth and richness that I wanted. The time spent was more than double what I ever thought it would take to finish the painting with the detail that I felt it deserved.
While painting these many layers and complex lines of the Heartbreak Hotel I had my mother on my mind a lot. We all have heartbreaks if we live our life with a willingness to love. The heartbreaks we think of most often are romantic heartbreaks. But my biggest heartbreak in my life has been the loss of my mother. She was just 49 when she died with lymphoma. When I lost her my world stopped turning and the gravity that held my world together was pulled from beneath my feet. I no longer heard wonderful music or saw beautiful sights. With much time and the love from those around me, the beauty of life came back. It is as if all my wonderful memories and the love of those around me added layer upon layer of insulation around the pain. Now I can see and hear beautiful things again. I treasure my memories of my mother and occasionally a brand new memory will come to me as a sweet gift out of the blue. During the creation of this painting I remembered her taking me out to buy my first ring. It was a small tiny pearl ring. The heart never forgets but I can choose to let my pain become a pearl.
I hope when you see this painting you love the richness of the color and feel the fun and gift of life and love. Oh and look really really close at this painting because just for fun I have hidden the words Elvis, Presley, Hound Dog, Graceland and Memphis in unexpected spots.

Bad things DO happen so you might as well try to laugh when they do. This painting was done after a long-time friend shocked me and really let me down. I felt she "threw me under the bus" Only figuratively, fortunately. But it hurt. I felt like I was Mr. Bill.
I have an old wooden ruler that says "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you." I often think what a utopia we would live in if everyone really practiced this. Whenever I feel someone has "done me wrong" my first thoughts are "man I hope there is some Karma out there." Then my second thought is if there is such a thing as Karma then what did I do to have this mess heaped on me? But I fully realize I am not always blameless and have created some bad Karma in my life. And feeling sorry for one's self and trying to get even aren't really very healthy or productive.
Anyway, back to this painting. I always loved the Saturday Night Live skits with Mr. Bill. I would guess that most of us have felt like life was using us as Mr. Bill sometimes when our feelings are hurt or situations are out of our control. That's life and if we can find humor in it, humor heals the soul.
I idealize the paintings of the late artist Charles Bell. I would have loved to have met him. First of all I would have a million of the technical "how did you do this, what's your favorite brush" kinds of questions but also he just had to have been a fun person to be around. His paintings are filled with humor and happy colors. My husband and I got to see several of his paintings in person in New York. You can't help but feel joy in your heart and pure amazement when you see what he has put on canvas.
I think Charles Bell would like the "Oh No!" painting. I hope everyone who sees it enjoys the humor and has warm memories of the times they watched the old "Mr. Bill" skits on SNL.
