"A Delicate Touch"

This painting of a private moment shared between mother and daughter is special to me. It is a picture of years of selfless love shared between mother and daughter. As the mother places the golden hairpiece in her daughter’s hair with aged hands, she quietly celebrates her daughter’s inner and outer beauty, future, and good fortune. There is no envy, no comparison, and no reservation of admiration. Just joy. 

In a world that increasingly preoccupied with personal appearances, it is freeing to try to see beauty with the eyes of this mother. Each time you look at this painting, I hope that you feel the peace that gentle kindness to others and yourself can bring. 
 
Details:
The original painting and print reproductions are available. Here is some additional information about each option:
 
Original painting:
The size of the artwork is 8 x 10 inches. I also package my original paintings with a 11" x 14" framing mat so that they are ready to be framed upon arrival. I painted this piece by hand using professional watercolor paints on archival watercolor paper. The artwork is signed with my name and the year that I painted it. 
 
Print reproduction:
My matte prints measure 8 x 10 inches. They are giclée (high-quality inkjet printing) prints on fine art paper. Prints do not come with framing mats. I sign every print by hand with archival-quality ink.
