Yes, this is a black & white painting. She sat there during my oil painting class, and held the position for me briefly, and kept asking "Can I see it?"

So, after the scratch and some layers of paints, I had taken a photo for reference, since she was going to have summer vacation in my parents', and her hair was cut short.

My wife's another classmate.

Kara was my wife's classmate in master degree age, and also my daughter's kindergarten daughter. She has been fond of planting green and little animals all the time. She held the lilies planted by herself in a metal vase. I chose a photo without her staring at the camera, and I think it represented her well.

It was my first birthday of 25 in Chicago in 1991 winter. They were young Christine, Kattie, and Patrick when they were about 10, 5, and 8. I still remember vividly the first morning when I was waken up by little Kattie, a lovely smiling face with big blue eyes and blond hairs stock in my eyes. They made a cake for me with 25 or 26 candles on it. If I remember correctly, the picture on the cake was a car which I was getting used to driving at that time. Their mom, Gwen, visited my family last year, and I am painting her now. I painted this one several years ago, but kept forgetting to put in the blog. I painted it with dots, a different approach to me.
