Thank You, Pedro
For my birthday, Pedro allowed me to have these two paintings made by an artist at Los Dominicos. Portraits are actually her specialty and she has a heart for the downtrodden, painting many children and adults from impoverished areas of the world. I couldn't afford the (ahem! $600 dollar) full-sized painting of a little girl's face that I loved, but she has a special heart for Africa and created these companion paintings which are absolutely beautiful (and only a fraction of the cost.) Now we have a little taste of Africa in our home, to celebrate the diversity of our family. (And as a humorous sidenote, she created the dress on the woman in blue especially for me since in the original painting the mother was not clothed from the waist up!)
I believe she titled these "African sunset" ...
