This is a drawing I did of her in about the late 1970's or maybe the early 1980's. I don't remember because I am a couple of years older than she is. The thing about her is that she still looks the same as in this portrait. Maybe a little tanner 'cause she now lives in the tropics, but otherwise, yeah, pretty much the same.
'Happy Birthday' Cornball!!

How lovely, and how lucky she is to have such a talented and sweet SIL

That is so beautiful! What a gift you have!
ReplyDeleteI had a sneaking suspicion that portrait would show up today! The year was actually 1978, the date of Steve's baptism.
ReplyDeleteThank you for being there in the moments of my life, and thank you for a lifetime of memories, dear Elenka, saved forever with the stroke of your brush.

Beautiful, Elenka.What did you use to do this portrait?
ReplyDeleteI used reddish brown conte pastels, which are hard pastels.
ReplyDeleteAlso, a soft white pastel.
Happy Birthday to your SIL...absolutely beautiful j)
ReplyDeleteWould you mind adopting me into your family??? I always thought it would be cool to have either a doctor or a mechanic in the family, but now I must add artist to the list!
ReplyDeleteWas this a gift for her?? How wonderful..
