In loving memory of Matthew Erik Dunn

I've been thinking about my cousin Wes and his family and the loss of their oldest son Matt. I painted this last night. It's kind of a dedication to Matt and his family. Matt was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis when he was six months old. He passed away this week due to complications from pneumonia. 

I sat down to write a condolence card and couldn't seem to put my thoughts into words. So I painted them instead.

  3. This is beautiful, I think it's great that you did this for them. I don't know that I could come up with something so eloquent either on canvas or paper.
