I don’t think she did it. She’s been framed.
Who dat?
Vdm17 stole my comment… 🙁
That’s a lovely shot of a portrait and begs the question on everyone’s mind: who dat?
Yup! I want to know too!!
Who who who!
Yep, exactly. Now you must tell us.
Who is the beauty?
Lovely. You can’t have portraits made like that anymore! What a treasure!
See, you have us all curious out here if that is a portrait of a family member or someone special to you. Does anyone do painted portraits anymore??? It would be lovely to have one of a person you cared for.
What a beauty! I have to say, I love nonamedufus’s comment!
🙂

What a beautiful portrait. 🙂
That’s a painting my grandfather Poppa Sye had done of his wife, my grandmother, Manga.
Sadly, she died on Mother’s day in 2007, from alzheimer’s.
My Manga.
I miss her all the time.
She spoiled me rotten when I was a child.
IN A GOOD WAY!
It’s my grandmother.
My mom’s mom.
And I miss her dearly.
Kristen…
Well, since you are NEW to my blog, here’s the WHOLE story on the woman in this painting.

🙂
My grandmother, Manga!
I thought there was a resemblance. Pretty lady.
Damn, have I never posted any photos of my gramma Manga?
Probably not, since she passed away around the time I really started getting serious about blogging.
Oh well.
Thank you, Laughing mom.
And you’re right about that.
I cherish this portrait of my grandmother Manga SO VERY MUCH.
Thank you Cheryl!
It’s my gramma Manga.
If you’d like to know more about her, you can read her story here:

xoxoxo
🙂
Thank you, Ziva.
I miss her. A lot.
🙂
What a beautiful painting! And a beautiful lady 🙂
AA great photo of a classy portrait, of a classy lady. By a class act.
It’s a remarkable painting, the way she blends into the murky background is surreal, but the work is striking and I’m glad you shared it.
Your Manga must have been a very elegant lady – this portrait truly shows that. Very nice!
😉
What a beautiful lady. She was very elegant. The artist really captured your grandmother’s essence!
Beautiful woman. It runs in your family!
Great choice for today’s theme. I like.
🙂
My son looks a LOT like my Manga!
xoxoxoxo
🙂
Thanks, Mo!
She sure was.
I think so too!
Awwwww….
Thank you!
That’s a beautiful painting, Meleah. I’m sorry she’s no longer with you.
You were right – we both had the same idea. 🙂
Pretty lady…you come from good genes. 🙂
Do you know when this was done? I’m figuring the 1970s?
Thank you, MWJ.
Yes good eye, Mariann!!
My gramma!
I told y’all!
Gracias!
I’m sorry. You didn’t tell me. I haven’t been here since this morning, but now I see and understand. I’m sorry for your loss. 🙁
A beautiful portrait of a beautiful lady. Definitely a work of art.
Just tracked back and read your post from 2009. This is exactly how I feel about my Pepere (French-Canadian for grandfather) ~ my father’s dad.
Thank you.
Meleah! She’s beautiful!
Why thank you!
