The Cave Painter/The Woodcutter by Don Hannah

In The Cave Painter:

Dianne is a printmaker who derives her imagery from pre-history-Neanderthal teeth, the Jericho skulls, old bones. Too many people close to her have passed away, and her only son has rebelled by embracing a life of religious fundamentalism. The Cave Painter is a one-woman show about a ribald, feminist Job; a funny, moving play about being an artist, dealing with loss and the intersection of art, grief and faith.

In The Woodcutter:

A scruffy, exhausted man is lost in the woods at nightfall with only a few sentimental objects in his pockets. Alone in a clearing he unloads his thoughts to the surrounding wilderness, ranting and raging, unraveling a story of a troubled past and of the family he adores, eventually coming to terms with the impossible truth of what he's done.
