This is an acrylic and india ink batik based on a photograph taken by one of my heroes.
When my Grandpa was in the Army he spent some time in Africa.
He took many pictures, although I never saw any of them until after he had passed away.
One of my aunts, who is also a photographer and an artist, found the pictures and
then shared them with the rest of the family.
It made me so happy to realize that I shared this passion for painting with light with him.
I do know that he loved the arts though because his home was decorated with paintings
done by my Grandma and my Aunt.
Thank you Grandpa for nourishing creativity in my Aunt, and thank you Lauri for passing
it on to me.
