Attached is a post of a portrait of three sisters, one is 5, one is 3 and one is 2. The photography was conducted at the Reynolda Gardens in Winston Salem, NC. We brought flowers, a basket and vials of soap for blowing bubbles. The mother was very helpful.

I took about 100 shots in about an hour's time and we captured about a dozen good photographic sources.

I didn't do a color study but I wish I had. I did keep one of the dresses for color reference.

The portrait measures 22"W x 32"H. I had to add some steps and extend the upper portions of the columns and the trees to fit the size. It is oil on linen.
