Grandma and Grandpa Behar

Mar 18th, 2009 by J. O'Brien

I collect old family photos when I find them, in antique stores and at sales. I prefer the older ones mounted on thick card stock but also look for any interesting prints, even newer ones. One of my favorites is this one of a man with two llamas, he reminds me a bit of my Uncle Bob.

The sketches at top are of Grandma and Grandpa Behar, Rebecca and Leon, drawn from a couple of hi-res family photos I found online.
