I'm having my good friend Soozee, who is an AMAZING artist, make a painting for me incorporating this photo. It's hard to explain what exactly it's going to be so I'll include a photo when it's done. It already makes me happy to think about though because I hold this picture near and dear to my heart. I miss Pepaw so very much and think about him quite a bit. I can still picture in my head, him doing a little dance to make me laugh or the smell of his aftershave when he gave me a hug. I feel like I got so much of my personality and interests from him and he always supported me in everything creative I ever did - which is probably why I still do it. I'll never be able to really tell him how much of an influence he had on my life but I like to think he already knew.
