The original studies I did for this painting included a background that I eventually determined to be too busy. So, I decided to give it a darker, more classic look with subtle highlights behind mother and baby.
Stunning artwork Tom! I agree: your background is beautiful and has a classic look and I love the way you have the light projected around Mom and baby. I'm a big fan of your brilliant work! --Love & Light~OLGA
