In the early hours,
I met a hooded figure,
It was death and he said:
"I have not come for you."

Newberry writes on his sales page:

I went back into this drawing and dramatized the light and dark. The piece is about mourning and the loss of a great friend who died before his time. When I was drawing the finishing touches I was sobbing. Art is an amazing field of human creativity--if you let it and you pursue it you can utilize the furthest depths of your soul--and the experience is similar to making passionate love but with the difference that you are also creating a thing. Undoubtedly that is where the idea comes from that artworks are one's children.
