A Portrait Gift

This painting was a gift to the grandmother version of the baby in the painting. Of course, it was loved. I can't stop staring at it myself.
One of the reasons I decided I loved paintings of people was that I would always look at them and wonder who the subject was and why they were documented in this way.
There is really no explanation needed as to why I chose to paint this photo. To me, she looks so glamorous in her 1940's style, caught in a moment of joyous laughter. So beautifully candid...
