Latour and Chanel , 6"x8" Oil on linen Panel S OLD I am grateful for family and friends, both near and far, those who I've had the fortune to know in person and those who have touched my heart from afar. Thank you for all your kindness, support, and your inspiration. I wish all of you the best and hope that you have many things for which to be thankful also.   The painting above was inspired by a book about the work of  Henri Fantin-Latour  that my daughter gave me for my birthday. The painting took a while, but it's been in my head for a while. It's nice to see in face to face. :) Sunflowers in Glass Jar , 5"x7" Oil on linen Panel S OLD Tiffany Box with Pink Rose , 4"x6" Oil on linen Panel S OLD

My beautiful quinceañera. She was really born in December, but with all the icy winters we have had in the last few years, we thought it best to wait until summer to celebrate. One of the first posts I ever did was of my oldest's  quinceañera. It seems like just a few months ago. But five years later, this is where we are.

I'm hoping he doesn't catch me posting that photo, but I love it so much. We were thrilled to find beautiful Italian lace in the perfect shade of pink to make her dress. I spent two days. I'll have to take a photo of the back. It had a big satin bow with crystals sewn on the center.  Ezri and her damas and flower girls. My nephew and nieces. My two wonderful girls who I love with all my being.
