This seems the perfect post for Memorial Day - about 1952. A girl, all prettied up with her pearls, smiles for the camera in her neat backyard. Actually I love the shapes and colors of this painting, as well as the slightly folk art feel. This one always gives me a smile - perhaps because she is so very pleased with herself.
