8″x10″ acrylic, 2011. Here is one of two paintings which were won over a year ago in an amazing giveaway over at Design Mom! The giveaway included a pair of my custom portraits as one part of a huge jackpot of goodies, and Jo was the lucky winner. Jo and I fell in and out of correspondence over the ensuing year. As she pondered which of her son Collin’s toys to choose, Jo did some world traveling and had another baby! At long last, here is Collin’s very special ukulele. I was delighted by the beautiful pillow beside it, not only due to my recent pillow-painting binge, but because of the sweet mama bird/baby birds motif… so appropriate for Jo at this point in her life!
