Feature - Portfolio (portraiture)
Day of Birth Ayla 5 – acrylic paint, ink, pencil and marker on paper, 7”W x 10”H, 2011
This gentle portrait, memorializes toddler Ayla Rose. The artist’s daughter’s spirit perseveres with her coy clever and friendly manner. She is bathed in purplish pink tones, her favorite colors. Five stars, representing each year of her life with a degenerative condition, spin off her long pony tail, watching over her.
