Trio

Three faces in a small square. The July series was done on 8 x 8 inch Masonite squares so the faces of this loving family are quite small. I know this family well and the love they have for their grandkids is boundless. When I look at the painting I see the constant effort and vigilance this Poppa and Nana (not in the painting) practice in guiding these young ones. It is a remarkable illusion to have so much meaning in miniature.

O God! Educate these children. These children are the plants of Thine orchard, the flowers of Thy meadow, the roses of Thy garden. Let Thy rain fall upon them; let the Sun of Reality shine upon them with Thy love. Let Thy breeze refresh them in order that they may be trained, grow and develop, and appear in the utmost beauty. Thou art the Giver. Thou art the Compassionate.
