To Lindsey in celebration of all the
blessings of childhood.
With love,

About the Piece: This is the fifth wall art piece I created. My daughter, Lindsey, spent many childhood summers at my parents "camp" at False River in New Roads, Louisiana. Some of Lindsey's fondest childhood memories are of long summer days at the river with her cousins. If you look closely you can see a representation of Lindsey and her cousin Stephanie on the right side of the dock, looking out at the river. There is a small frog in the grass in the foreground at the right.
