“Deep in Thought is an intimate portrait of my husband, David.
“It captures a moment where he seemed to be a million miles away. I don’t even know what he was thinking, but he was worried about something as he sat there quietly mulling things over.
“My aim was to create that feeling of quiet and solitude one has when deep in thought.”
Felicite Briggs, 2024.
