This portrait i created of my parents with their grandchildren sharing the scrapbook pages of family history was recently destroyed. I created this many years back and it won so many awards i can even count. when i moved out of my studio a friend offered to store it for me. Someone then decided they could give to a junk dealer in for the use of the very nice frame. she went on to make fun of it online and then paint over it! My point is not once along the way did anyone of these people think this just might be important to someone. It was signed by me and would not have been very hard to track me down. This was shot on film which was lost in a flood so i can no longer reprint is that size :/
All parties have apologized so i will not post their names here.
