"In Piece: The Women at Pinewood Gardens"
                                   Becca Bernstein

    This is a painting by American artist, Becca Bernstein. Her work is groundbreaking because it depicts the reality of humans. To me, it means that it is part of life to grow old. It's only natural that we will lose our agility, strength, and appearance up to a certain point. Rather than just a portrait, this artwork shows the personality of an elderly lady. She looks happy and peaceful. I'm glad that she doesn't paint youthful personalities. This is  because even though in the painting the subject will never get old, in reality it's a different story. She portrays how fragile we all are despite what we say. Overall, she is a great artist that has changed how we view others and ourselves.
