Here's a memento of happy hours spent together at bedtime,

putting toys away and reading stories...

This very good bottle of wine was a souvenir from a shoot I did at one of Ontario's best wineries that I kept for many years as a memento of my career in broadcasting covering the agriculture and food industry. 

Then, one night, we drank it.  Well, at least I still have the painting!

You never stop learning.  I've been painting with acrylics and watercolours for many years, but I did this next one in my first oil-painting class at the U of Guelph in the Fall of 2018.  I'm now up to Painting III.  Sometimes, even a bunch of scrap paper can make a pretty good painting...  and fond memories, too!
