"Lil' Dude" by Gwen Bell




















5x8" oil on canvas panel nfs

This was painted from one of my favorite
photos of my son , Michael. He was about
2 1/2 and idolized his Grandpa who always
wore a hat and boots. He's 36 now but I
still see this sweet little boy when I look at him.

  4. Gwen, what a cutie. Love it. Makes me want to pull out some old photos of the kiddos and paint them in boots and hat.

  5. Wonderful painting and a fantastic way to remember and pay tribute to your Father. I have to agree with Kay, this makes me want to search through some old photos, too.
