This painting has an interesting story.  Everytime in the past when I had completed a painting, my wife Theresa wanted to keep it and hang it in the house.  I am not a big fan of hanging MY artwork in the house, mainly because I see it as a sign of vainity, which I am not interested in (funny that I have a web site though.)  She never said much, but I could tell she was upset to see many of the other works go.  The day before Christmas, I thought it would be nice to give her a painting, one made specifically for her.  So I worked feverishly to do a complete painting, wrap it, and have it sitting underneath the tree as though I had done it months ago.  I made the deadline. She was very happy to FINALLY get a painting.  And yes, it hangs in the house.  But that's alright.  I am rarely home these days anyway.
