Painting - Watercolor
Description
Unfortunately, I never met this lovely lady; however, according to her devoted son, she was a kind, loving mother and gentle grandmother who nurtured the entire family. This portrait was commissioned posthumously in loving memory of his mother.
Naturally, as a portrait painter, I prefer to work from good color photos but I realize they are sometimes hard to come by so I do the best I can with the photos I am given. I can work from photos as small as 1.5" x 2" and in black-and-white to produce a colorful portrait such as was the case with the watercolor painting shown here. Commission a portrait of a special loved one in your family. All portraits are hand-painted with sensitivity by international portrait artist Hanne Lore Koehler.
Thank you to all who voted for my painting in these contests! I appreciate your generous response and support!

You did a wonderful job Hanne of bringing all the attributes out in this portrait of lovely, kind and gentle grandmother. How wonderful for her son to commission you to do this for him and his family. If only more people did this for their families to pass along in their legacy.. For example, "This was your great, great grandmother!" And she was a GREAT woman.. A person we shoul d all aspire to be like.. " (I suspect we would have a kinder world). (My thoughts!) vf mm
