Mosaic Painting

My husband made this painting of our first-born years ago, when she was around 6 months old.  We must have had more free time back then.  He should open an Etsy shop, don’t you think?

I searched through our old pictures and found the photo that he used:

He took the photo, created the mosaic effect in Photoshop and then laid it out on a grid.  Sort of a paint-by-numbers thing.  I wouldn’t have the patience for this, but thought I’d share since it turned out so well.  I’ve always loved it.  Our younger daughter got one that was done in Photoshop and sent off to the photo processor to be printed on canvas.  I guess if we had another, she wouldn’t get one at all.  Or any baby toys since I’ve given them all away.
