The Picture!

I finally had the time to scan "the picture."  So here it is.  The overall picture that I cropped it out of was one of countless family birthday celebration pictures taken around my grandmother's dining room table.  It is cropped and re-sized bigger so the resolution may not be great.  I can't believe that I used to look at this picture all the time and couldn't for the life of me remember it when I was thinking about it.  I have no information about it.  I never asked my grandmother where she got it or who painted it.  It had hung in her dining room as long as I can remember.  In fact now that I am thinking about it I will have to go into my baby book.  I know there is a picture of me sitting on the table as a little girl.  I bet the picture is on the wall behind me.  For all I know it could be something a family member painted.  I know that my grandmother did have one or two other paintings that someone in the family painted.  Who the painter was, I can't remember.  Maybe a sibling or a cousin.  It's been so long now, I can't remember.  Well anyway, here's the painting.  Whether or not some artist painted it or a family member did, matters not to me.  What matters to me is that now when I close my eyes I can remember my grandmother's dining room just as it was the last time I visited her in it.  Down to the last detail.  She is gone now and someone else lives in her house, so memories like this painting are what I have.  Fond memories of happy times.
