Kristin, this is my favorite of your pieces so far. I just felt like I was there, and I love this lady! Thanks for sharing your art with us!

What a beautiful soul! And how lucky you were to meet her. My mother is an artist (just turned 90 yesterday) and she's definitely a mujer grande. When we were kids, we lived in a house in Connecticut and she set aside a wall for us to make handprints. All our friends joined in. Anyone who visited was welcome to make a handprint on the wall. We pressed our hands into paint (our choice of color) and made the handprints ourselves right onto the wall. I assume whoever bought the house from us painted right over that, but I know all our handprints are still there underneath!
