My amazingly talented friend and Disney artist Adrienne Brown offered to paint a likeness of an old photograph of my mother and I. This is a huge deal because she has such a jam packed schedule painting Tinkerbell and all her fairy friends for Disney books, posters, and movies. So I was over the moon and completely honored that she offered to take what little free time she has to do this for me. She took the original and breathed new life and luminescence into it. My gratitude is beyond words. You can view more of her work here. And she really is one of the nicest, most down-to-earth persons I’ve ever met. Great talent and absolutely gracious. Many, many thanks to you Adrienne for your kindness.
Here is the original photograph:
