Artists run in my family. My grandmother is an artist, and so are some of her children, while I like to dabble in painting and collage. My husband’s family also is artsy; he’s a graphic designer and photographer, and his late grandfather was a painter and photographer as well. Unfortunately, I can’t reveal his name for privacy reasons, but take it from me, Pops did some cool work. A lot of the time his subject of choice was his wife, and I have some really neat photographs that he took of her. The painting above is also of my husband’s grandmother; my mother-in-law recently unearthed it (along with some others) and sent a scanned copy to me. I hope to see the original one day, because this piece has style and flair!
