This is a very sensitive drawing. It also captures the subjects in their environment, rural Nova Scotia. The architectural elements are as nice as the people. Very nice.

Artist Reply: Thank you so much for you beautiful comments. The subjects of this drawing would happy! I love the character of the old photos, the era, the styles, and of course the architectural culture.
