My daughter Lisbeth will be joining me in my studio on Monday mornings to "do art." Today she was not in the mood to make art, but wanted me to draw her. She sat for about half an hour. I have made several portraits of Lisbeth over the years. It's an intense experience, because she is so intense, and our bond and joint history is so intense. In a thirty minute period, Lisbeth can rapidly vacillate between giddiness, anxiety, anger, sadness...it's all there.

Did she like her portrait?
She wanted to take it home RIGHT THEN but I wanted to work on it more. Then she called me a couple of hours later and asked IS IT DONE YET?? :^)
