This piece, a commission I completed and shipped a few weeks ago.  I thoroughly enjoyed creating this unique piece.  A friend’s daughter had visited the gallery that represents my work a few months back and saw a piece she liked, thinking about it for a family member.  She contacted me a month later, giving me some insight about the young women who would receive the painting.  I suggested doing a bit larger canvas and we both are happy with the result.  I was able to include almost all of what this young women enjoys, as she is quite talented in the performing arts.  She played the lead role in Alice in Wonderland and is presently in the production of the musical Gloria.   I Dreamed A Dream is her favorite song and I can only imagine she performs it beautifully!  As an artist it truly feels good to create a painting that is one of a kind for another talented artist with passion in her soul for the performing arts.
