There are some pieces that remind me why I picked up a paintbrush in the first place. 🌙✨
This is the first portrait I’ve been able to finish since losing a very dear family friend three years ago. For a long time, the spark just wasn't there—but witnessing the love Tonya’s family has for one another truly brought it back.
Seeing Crusty find his place on their wall, in the heart of their home, is the greatest gift. Art has a way of healing both the person holding the brush and the one holding the frame. Thank you for helping me find my way back to the canvas, Tonya Rudolph and for allowing me to share this piece. ❤️
