My former husband , conductor of the Newfoundland Symphony Orchestra then, had to audition students for the summer Banff Youth Orchestra. We drove across Newfoundland from our home in St. John’s. Our cabin was next to a family with two boys. They wore hip waders and sat stroking a young kitten on one boy’s lap. I never took their names and address to send a photo of the future painting.

Robert Olsen took me to New Jersey to see a house he was renovating. Later, as I sat on the front steps waiting, a little girl caught my eye while she was playing with her dog. She was happy to have an audience, seeing me wave and I took some photos. Unfortunately I wasn’t thinking and didn’t ask her parent’s address to send a photo of the painting. Watercolor 20"x30" 2008
Allysa, Jessica’s younger sister, the other angel, and Christmas card. The feather flew off my art table…called it Oops because I felt like it came from her wings. In truth, she actually told her sister, who was seated behind her during the photo sitting,” Don’t touch me!” Watercolor 15” X 20” 2006

I met Anna-Lena and little Paulina at a local birthday party in Thousand Oaks, California. I asked the parents if I could photograph them sometime for a possible painting. After a number of photos taken, I chose this one for the love shown between the two sisters. It became my Christmas card in 2007 Later the Seethalers contacted me to purchase the painting for their daughter’s Anna-Lena’s surprise birthday. They now reside in Germany.
