HI all

Here's a commission I stumbled upon last year while striking up a conversation with the owner of a storage place I am renting from. His ceilings at home are very tall, and I look forward to post a photo of this hung - The painting is 7 FEET tall and 38" wide. The photo(s) I took last summer.

Linda, this is absolutely beautiful. Can you please give more details as far as posed/photos or both. The amount of time it took? The whole family must have been thrilled. Once again, beautiful.

Linda,

I think this is an amazing portrait. I like the composition, I like the vertical stretch you have given the scene, and I like the fresh airy feel to the overall. You have conquered what must have been a frightening undertaking.

Beautiful work Linda! I'll wait impatiently for more details. I especially like the backlighting, you've done it so well.

Jean

So many in a single portrait and it doesn't look awkward. Fabulous job, love the color.
