Originally, I had painted the parents into this scene but after completing it, I felt they were a distraction to the obvious focal point. So, I decided to leave only the mom and dad's hands, which are expressive enough in and of themselves...and the rest, as they say, is history!

I have to say my favorite part of this piece is how realistic and how much detail you put into the grass, and the sunshine splashing through the trees. Beautiful.Robert Ryan 05 Mar 2007
