This looks a little bit distorted because I had to tip the painting downward to photograph it without glare.
It is an oil painting that my very-talented husband did from an old photo of his father and our youngest daughter, taken in the backyard of my in-laws' former house. I love this photo, but I now love this painting even more.
I know that my mother-in-law will love it, too.

Happy Birthday, Dad! We sure wish you were here.
Love,
Connie
P.S. This weekend was an exhausting blur, and I have so much to show you. We'll do that tomorrow.
and ... don't forget to enter my tile tray giveaway, if you haven't already. I am really enjoying getting to know all of you!
Oh Connie, what a wonderful way to remember your father in law.
ReplyDeleteHow lucky you both were to have such a good relationship.
The painting is beautiful - yes, your husband IS very talented! His Mom will love it. She'll cry, but she will love it, and she will cherish the love that produced it.
All the best -- Cass
