Grandma Gigi's paintings hold a special place in all of our hearts. The den, the house, all were decorated with her work. I remember sitting in on painting classes after school when I'd walk over from Bret Harte. I even painted a couple of pictures with her help. A few years back I started trying to make the time to paint - but time is not something I have laying around. It is a choice, however, how we spend our time.
Before heading back to Washington on trip south, Grandma left Julie and I select a picture each from her studio collection. These pictures are hung in a place of honor in our house and carry with them memories of the house, of Grandma, and of growing up.
