What I left behind at Wellesley College

26/7/2016

I was tickled to see my dear college room mate Lani, revisit Wellesley with her son and husband to see her portrait that I painted for the Slater International house over 23 years ago! 

​The painting was commissioned by Sylvia Heistand, the director of Slater back in 1993. There was an empty panel above the fireplace that she thought needed some color. I thought long and hard about what to paint; I wanted something relevant to the place. I chose a series of portraits of my classmates who hailed from all over the world. I'm glad Wellesley chose to keep the painting this long :)
