| "Two Sisters", a portrait of myself (right) and my sister Polly (left) the source for this oil painting was a Polaroid photo taken by my father . . . in July of 1968 . . . I like incorporating the yellow border of the snapshot as a frame-within-a-frame . . . |

| "Easter Sunday" a family portrait in oil. Again, I incorporate the Polaroid snapshot border as the frame within the frame . . . this photo was taken at at the dining table at St. Frances DeSales Convent in Roxbury, MA where my aunt, Sister Ildephonsus, was the school principal |
