The foreground featured their beloved dogs, adding warmth to the scene. The couple sat on a rustic wooden bench beneath an oak family tree, with their daughters perched on branches, holding paintbrushes as if decorating a plaque with their family name—a tribute to their artistic talents. Grandparents’ names adorned the tree’s roots, grounding the artwork in family history.
