The old couple’s smile

The Old Couple's Smile

Smile, darling.
At our age, what's more to do,
But smile; the children are doing better
Than the chikens or ourselves.
Isn't it great to smile?

--Byung A. Fallgren

This couple is my husband's great grandparents. I was smittened
by their smile in their photo that I had to capture it in my painting.
That was done in 1994!

  1. What a beautiful tribute. Capturing the smiles of a couple like that, and preserving them in a painted memory, conveys warmth, love, and the beauty of the years shared. Those smiles speak louder than words.
