portraits


Don't you love this old painting of my husband's mother when she was young?  I really wish people had portraits like this done more often these days, as I find them absolutely lovely and so timeless.  Does anyone know an artist who does anything like this?  Wouldn't it make the best Mother's Day gift?  Hmmm, the wheels are turning...

    I love portraits and would love to have them done of my children. My brother and I have them and it's kinda fun to see us from an artist's perspective.
