8″x10″ acrylic, 2011. This portrait was emotionally frought for all involved, but perhaps it may contribute to a family’s healing from the tragic loss of a loved one. This giraffe, who was the favorite toy of a child who has recently passed away, serves as a lovely, symbolic remembrance. The painting is a gift for the child’s mother from her very thoughtful aunt. I truly hope that this portrait will serve as a subtle commemoration of a child’s happiness for the grieving family.
