Living Family Portraits

I've been living Ted Coney's Family Portraits rather than recording them this week. After months of waiting, our beautiful new granddaughter made a dramatic entrance on her parents bathroom floor last Thursday and we have all been in shock ever since. I set up this blog to talk about my painting and gallery, to show how my Family Portraits have developed, but every so often, life becomes more vivid than art and this moment is one of those. Poppy Grace finally arrived and we are already in her thrall. I'll talk about my ideas for a painting involving her , later. In the meantime, I am just enjoying the moment.
