"Alice in Dutch Costume", oil on linen panel, 11x14
In the Spring 2004 (not long after the Madrid train bombing) I took my daughter to Europe to visit some friends in the Netherlands & France. Alice was only 3.5 years old so she didn't protest when we went to a photo studio and dressed her up in traditional Dutch costume (complete with the wooden shoes!). I looked at those "old photographs" again a few weeks ago and started to paint her....I love the colorful clothes and white hat she had on. I couldn't tell whether she was happy or just got along with her Mom's agenda, but, I thought she was so cute!
Here's another shot of Alice in the same costume:
Thanks for visiting my blog and have a great weekend!
