Almost done with my latest painting

Did Aunt Gladys in the back there know she was flipping off the camera? I bet she did.

I get the feeling that the photo was a (very) brief moment of still in a (very) lively scene...

I have a growing collection of vintage photos that I now keep separate from my family photos, so when I die my kids aren't asking who are these people? And are we related to them?!
This is a photo from the 1950s or 1960s. I got it from an ephemera and photo seller in Ohio.

I don't really know any of the people in this photo, I just bought it because I liked it and wanted to do a painting of it.
But thank you!

would like a vintage family photo turned into a displayable, colorful artwork like this, inquiries are always welcome at julie_schuler@comcast.net

I think they make pretty neat gifts.
