My collage painting, A Fun Day At The Park, was a delightful commissioned piece to create. Happily, one of my neighbor's children expertly modeled for me while pretending to skateboard in my studio. Another little girl pretended to dance on daddy's shoes. As a mom of three (nearly all grown-up) girls, I feel very strongly connected to family. I LOVE babies, and kids off all ages, and I hope that when you view my work at the hospital, you notice that same feeling reflected in my artwork there.
