Pencil Portraits & Pencil Drawings | Paint Your Life

I ordered this painting for my girlfriend, Casey, for an early Mother`s Day present. In the picture is her grandpa Frank and our daughter, Emma Kailani. Her grandpa passed away suddenly in 2012, and our daughter was born in 2017. Over the last 4 years, she`s mentioned (on countless occasions) how she wished he was here so they could meet in person. The memories Casey shares about her grandpa with Emma are incredibly special, and Emma already has a sense of humor that resembles his. Casey said, "It`s so real. She`s sitting on his lap, laughing at his jokes. Wow. I`ve dreamed about this, and how bad I wish it could happen." Thank you to the artist, Naomi B., for making Casey`s dream a reality. Your talent is a gift, and it created a painting that brought out Casey`s "ugliest cry she`s ever cried in her life".
