Sorry to hear about your father Dawn and hope your painting can console you a little. This is very moving with depth and a heartfelt Expression. Your use of mixed mediums has been very successful.

After a dreadful week,my dad has been diagnosed with terminal cancer, I needed something beautiful to focus on. Annabel is a friend's daughter. The ref photo was taken some years ago.
