The Fitting Room"...features three of my daughters in a fitting room trying on prom dresses. "

The Fitting Room is a Neo-Impressionistic piece (Pointillism). I had taken this photo years before, and had been "saving it" for the right moment. I chose to execute it in this style because it reminds me of Degas' ballerinas, it conveys movement and captures a fleeting moment in space and time. It is personal, but, it also has a modern "twist" that I liked. Even though it harkens to Old Masters, it has inclusion of me, the proud mom, in the reflections taking a photo with my cell phone (a "modern twist").
