Abuelito

This is my grandfather about two weeks after he got out of the hospital. So he looks a little thinner and was still feeling weak. I should do another painting of him now that he's feeling better. He was kind enough to sit long enough for me to paint him from life. He sat at the edge of his bed. I painted from the doorway looking into his room.
