Christy is our September Winner
We are delighted to announce that Christy Williams Moore is our September 2019 competition winner. She will now receive a FREE painting of her choice (she has chosen to paint another custom MBN of her daughter, Rachel).
Christy has painted a number of Masterpieces (which she always shares with us) but this painting and the story behind it really touched our hearts.
'I finished my first custom painting, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! The photo used is my husband and daughter and myself from 1996, in our back yard. Tragically, and suddenly, we lost our 32 year old daughter, Rachel, in 2015 from complications due to Type 1 Diabetes. This is the family portrait we never got the chance to make, and I felt she was with me the whole time I was painting. Thank you, for always providing quality pbn kits, I am a happy customer for life!' -

'I began painting almost 2 years ago to help deal with my grief, it allows me to lose myself in the painting and relax. The more detailed the painting, the more calmness I feel, so, I keep pushing myself to do better.'
This is the photo of beautiful Rachel that Christy has chosen to use for her free custom MBN.
'I have decided to challenge myself with this picture of my daughter, Rachel, in Greece. She went at the end of her Senior year of college in 2005, and fell madly in love with the place. She double majored in English and Art History, and this trip was a dream come true for her. I am so thankful we were able to make the trip happen for her.' - Christy
As a parent, I cannot begin to imagine the pain of losing a child. Christy is an amazing lady and a reminder that we should always be kind, since we never know what someone is dealing with.
Masterpiece By Numbers has made a memorial donation to JDRF (https://www.jdrf.org/) in honor of Rachel Elizabeth Bohan, 2/13/1983-3/15/2015.
