Ernest Crichlow was not like many other artists. He was an artist who showed his emotion through his work by painting images of the things he saw as a child and the things that he went through. In this picture "Evening thoughts" Crichlow depicts an African American woman with a problem. Whereas he does not completely tell us what the problem is. He leaves it up to the viewer to decide what they think is wrong with this individual.
"The picture is haunting! First you see the innocent girl in the
lightbut then you see the mysterious woods calling out to her while the girl is wondering should I stay away."—Jenna Davidson 7/27/10
