Esther Brokaw: "This is my first oil painting, after painting one water color painting. I wanted to use intense color and have more control over my paint so I switched to oil paint. Like many parents, the sight of my first born sleeping was a sight to behold. But could I possibly paint it? I opened the door to a lit closet and took a picture using the wash of the light and my tripod. I thought , if I do it in shades of blue, maybe I could at least show the outline of a baby sleeping. But as I painted and got to her face, I could not paint her cheeks anything but pink and before I knew it I was using all the colors. As I finished, she became so clear I felt like I could see her move. That's when I know I'm done."
