Abercrombie, Gertrude

Gertrude in 1941. With her cat and infront of her large self portrait I assume.

Every time I encounter a Gertrude Abercrombie painting online, I stop and think about it.

I think she is great. I like her desolate world of lonely people, cats, and somber thoughts.

Her work seems to all be very very small… were talking a few inches by any given side.
