Painting of my Aunt from the 1940's by Brittany


This was Brittany's first painting, dated 2004.. I had given her an old black and white photo of my Aunt Donna who served our country in WW2. I hope you enjoy... Looks just like Donna.
Blessings to all...

  1. GEEEEZZZZ...Brittany is so good!!! What an appropriate and touching rendering for this beautiful day of the fourth! Penny dear, please encourage Brittany to make a blog of her work....she would have such a following! You know, smiles are something I have never been able to capture with a realistic appearance....but Brittany does it with such finesse. Art runs in the family!

    How are you celebrating the fourth day? I think we are staying home....it turned awful humid last night and I prefer to breath easily other than feel I am breathing in water!!!

    Much love to you dear friend, Anita

    Love and Blessings dear friend, Penny

    P.S., those pictures and figures of Bebe are too cute. There ought'a be a law against that kind of cute.

  11. Hi Penny , Her first painting is very good!!!I love how it is in black and white but she used the red coloring. I love your miniature watercolor slide the coloring is so delicate. It is a beautiful collection I love that little tiny cherub laying on a bird and they are all so pretty . Sincerel,Jonny
