Birthsong
Acrylic on 18" x 24" canvas

I painted this on the day that our first grand daughter Penelope Bloom was born. It was a very exciting morning as we were all there to welcome her in. I later came home that afternoon and this painting was the result of all those spilled out emotions. She is now 3 1/2 months old and most beautiful!!!
This painting has been speaking to me lately about new beginnings just as in the birth of a baby, the celebrating of a birthday or even in the beginning of each day. Last night we all came together to celebrate my father-in-law, great grandpa "Jackie's" 82nd birhthday. A new beginning.....
Jackie and Penelope
Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. Lamentations 3:23

Oh Elizabeth, even before I read how this beautiful piece came to be, I could see you were so joyous in painting this. It still sings a song of celebration for new life and new beginnings. Bravo!
Another great painting, Elizabeth!!
