An archival, high quality, signed print on heavy weight smooth paper ~ created from an original painting. All prints feature a thin white border, for framing ease. 8x10 and 12x12 prints fit perfectly into a standard-sized frame.

When a piece touches you and delivers the memories that stem from your loving relationship with your child(ren), that piece should be passed down ~ adored then shared with the next generation. This is a fresh archival print, for durability and long life.

Message from the Artist: After my father passed away in 1998, there was a song that mesmerized me – a country song titled Daddy’s Hands by Holly Dunn (“Daddy’s hands were soft and kind when I was crying, Daddy’s hands – were hard as steel when I’d done wrong, Daddy’s hands weren’t always gentle, but I’ve come to understand, there was always love in Daddy’s hands…”). I realize this painting is about more than a father’s touch – but about the breath and energy, eye contact and atmosphere that flow between. It seems fitting to complete this painting on the day that would have been my father’s 62nd birthday.
