Yesterday, our oldest granddaughter turned 17.  An amazing, gifted singer, songwriter, piano and guitar player, she already 'glows'. She likes fireflies, so I decided to do a little painting for her birthday. As grandparents, we love to pass on words of wisdom to our grandchildren and I feel through this painting that I will be able to 'speak' to her for many years to come.

"Button Jar" by Li Mahalik

Just one of many
Been there, done that and retired
He's looking at you

I went to the antique shop awhile ago and bought some bottles and jars. They were sitting on a book shelf and doing not much until one afternoon when the sun caught them and my eyes. With one of my abstract paintings behind them, the golden glow was mesmerizing. So, I painted them and found that it was fun to paint the glasses and bottles. 
The button jar was actually an easy one to paint and yet said so much.
