"Elise's Daughter in Gauguin's Garden"

©2008 D.M. Le Bris

I have many wonderful cousins.
As an only child, I spent all my summer vacations with them.
It was a time of wonder for me.
Elise is one of my Brittany cousins; we were born the same year,
a few months apart.
We both loved to draw.
We bore our first-born a few months apart.
I wanted to paint her daughter, Sandrine
I did it mostly from memory.
Now, Sandrine is an artist herself.

Acrylic on wood.
