Description A portrait of my parents,Jaime and Patricia Scerpella.

Admittedly,an idealized depiction,as the likenesses were based on an old photo I have of them.Regrettably,my father passed away four years ago,of natural causes;at that time,I was nowhere near this proficient with digital paint.
In doing this piece,it's a better-late-than-never attempt at family portraiture,something I haven't really explored---one look at my gallery will reveal the type of art I normally do.
I plan to have this printed and framed,as a Christmas present for my mother;more on that afterwards.

3-1-2016...with the passing of my mother on February 20th,this work has taken on new meaning for me.

Dude, that's a work of art. I think you're on to something. Scrap that suggestion I made to use GIMP.
