Art, anything goes...

What a painting! It's awesome @Phoenix. You portrayed your father well as a "hardworking gentle man of integrity". I was intrigued with how you also documented your time spent painting and some insight into the details of your father's hands and face etc.
 
@Phoenix , I tried to find my "Lara's Artwork" thread I posted July 13, 2015 in the "Hobbies Forum" with all of my artwork at that time but it's gone, gone, gone. I did a search in the search box and found it but the pics are postage stamp size and type is tiny.

When our Senior Forum moved a couple of years ago many of my posts appeared with tiny type and pics, and half of my reputation points disappeared. I don't even show up as a member on the members list in the tool bar anymore. I don't mind that much about the members list but I am sad that I've lost Art thread :(

Your Dogwood Blossom painting is wonderful. The detail is exquisite. What is your medium? Bummer you lost Art thread.

Thank you. I feel closer to the person when I paint them. Sometimes when a person I love passes away, it helps me to paint a picture of them to help me release my sense of loss. When my sister passed away I painted a picture of her when she was a kid. It was from one of those old small black and white pictures that were taken in school. At the point I painted this I had been painting for only 3 years. So the proportions are a little off as you can see by looking at the photo. My sister
