Senorita



This painting entered my home a few months ago when we had to remove the last of the things from my grandmother's home. She bought it from a door to door salesperson probably close to 50 years ago.  For as long as I can remember it had hung her stairway, but I do remember seeing a photo of it hanging in her living room with a striped wallpaper.  She always said that she loved the way the Senorita's eyes would follow her when she walked by and that fact always fascinated me when I was a child.  I remember going up and down the stairs with my eyes on the painting.  I never thought it would one day belong to me, but I am happy to be able to give it a new home.
