These two people are the love of my life--my husband and daughter. They give meaning and purpose to my life. My daughter is a busy high-school kid who participates in many camps during the summer months. We haven't taken summer vacations for two years because of her busy schedule!
Bemoaning the fact, I suggested a day outing one day. But the forecast was ominous with thunderstorms and such. We stayed put. The weather, however, turned out to be one of the best summer days in the Washington area. After a nice dinner at a restaurant, we went for an enjoyable walk in a neighborhood park. I took the reference photo for the painting at the pond gazebo.
"Love of My Life" again proves my philosophy. As long as we are with the people we love AND enjoy each other's company, we don't have to go to Europe or a tropical paradise for a "quality" family time. My husband asked me to paint the scene to capture our happy day together. The painting is for him.
That is such a sweet story Kim. Beautiful keepsake!
