Bella

I have known Bella for the last 10 years as she is a car guard at our local shopping centre. Her tenacity and resilience inspires me. Regardless of the hardships she so often endures or the extreme weather conditions Bella is always standing diligently and proudly at her position in the car park warmly welcoming the shoppers. Her name suits her as she has a beautiful, gentle and kind personality. I am honored that she gave me permission to paint her portrait.
