I almost always make the art that you see
at the top of this daily blog the day that I post.
But not always. Not today.
I started with this, one of my favorite family photos.
Aunt Martha, Aunt Pauline & Aunt Fern, all teachers.
They were the eldest three of my Mom's four sisters.
Today I found my photos taken in 2010 ...
when I started work on a 40 x 48" canvas ...
using just papers, magazine & tissue.
It wasn't quite what I wanted, but it sold.
I did like the faces, they seemed ...

to have a painterly quality that I don't often achieve.

When you look at the original photo, you can see
I didn't really do any of my Aunts justice, but I tried.
Their daughters, my cousins saw the work.
One had the comment, "Interesting."
I have an all-day demo coming up this month,
and I am thinking I may take another try at this?
What do you think?
A smile for Monday ...
