Commissioned by George and Shelley Esquivel: Savannah, Eva and Benny Esquivel are featured in the watercolor painting/graphite drawing on watercolor paper 3ft. x 4ft. It took me 3 years to create this piece because I made many, many attempts and discarded them prior to landing on this composition. Fortunately, the Esquivel's were very patient clients who allowed me to have carte blanche with their commission. It's hangs at Esquivel Shoes Headquarters in Southern California.
