Painted for Ben  Townsend, DE

"My father-in-law passed away this spring and this was our first Christmas without him. I had this painting commissioned in September because I knew that it would mean a lot to my wife to have a keepsake of her favorite picture of her dad and our daughter to keep and hand down. In the room were my wife, daughter, mother in law and my brother and sister-in-law on video chat. "
