Grandparents WIP


As I am painting my grandmother, questions flood my head of what I would have liked to ask her about her wedding day. There is mystery behind the unsmiling lips. Did she make her dress or did she buy it? So on, and so on.....

I'm not finished with my grandfather's suit. The reference is very dark and doesn't show much detail. I got tired of working on it, so I chose to work on the dress for awhile.

Hi Valerie, you are doing a great job on her dress. I know, old photos have me wanting to ask questions too! :-)
