After returning from the soccer banquet this weekend, Maya noticed a portrait I made of her as a young girl.  Realizing she was wearing a similar red dress, she asked if we could try and recreate the original.  It was a fun project which we did in 20 minutes.  The original backdrop was a faux-painted wall in our Indianapolis home on Meridian Street and not one I could easily reproduce.  I was, however, able to match the lighting and Maya the pose.  It was great fun doing this with her and then observing how much she has changed and how much she has remained the same. I would love to try and do similar recreations for the boys (hint, hint!)
