What a treat to start the day reading so many nice responses!
Thank you Lisa, Tricia, and Carol .(That is too funny, Carol, about the repeated message, and I'm glad to hear from you in reality.)

Lisa, I'm so flattered that you think I look somewhat like my mother, because I really don't have her classic features. In reality I look more like my father, though every once in a while someone will say adamantly that there is a strong general resemblence between me and my mother.

I think this painting has a kind of wistful quality for me, because my mother moved to CA last year at the age of 83, and we no longer rent that house due to a change of ownership. We had rented it for 30+ years. So there have been major upheavals in our lives and this painting was in some way a response to them or a meditation on them.
