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!
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.

Thank you, Derrick. Most of my paintings were out of stock, long ago. I haven’t painted for over a decade. I might paint again someday. 😊
