This painting was a gift to my husband. We spent a weekend
in June last year at Lake Erie for a family reunion.
I thought it would make a great painting.
Their faces were mostly in the shadows and therefore,
this was a great challenge. But I could not resist, since
it was a special moment between a precious
grand-daughter and her Pop-pa.
