ELIZABETH LADY OF LEBANON
+copySMALL.jpg)
oil on canvas , 24x30
It is a portrait of my daughter Elizabeth with the flowered patterned dress and background which can be seen in most of my paintings
In the back are shown some houses of Lebanon with the traditional Venitian arcades which can be seen in all the old homes of Lebanon where I spent 15 years of my life and went to college. We used to go in all those old villages and take pictures and measurements of the old houses for our architectural projects. This was before the civil war started in a Lebanon that was smiling and friendly to strangers. Elizabeth was born here. She is a first born immigrant in the Sawaf family. In her blood still runs the blood of a woman of syrian- lebanese descent
I would like to get commissions for portraits

painting outdoors with the Breakfast club artists
This is the season for the galleries and all I have been doing is move my paintings around galleries. I was still able to go to my friend's Hsiu lovely garden for a paint out yesterday and the painting I did of Nita Casey while she is painting will be up soon. Steve Previte, Diane Levine, Lori Simons, Bob Steigmaier were all there painting or taking photographs while Hsiu was cooking for us a delicious lunch.
