Margaryta


I just completed this portrait of a lovely woman named Margaryta who appears to have had a real zest for life, although she suffered from a life long problem with depression.  There's a saying..."Depression is like a war, you either win, or you die trying."  Unfortunately and very sadly for Margaryta and her family, she did not win this war.  This painting was a commission done as a gift for her daughter who misses her terribly.

All proceeds from the painting have been donated to Siloam Mission where many of the needy suffer from clinical depression.
