Liz came downstairs with her guitar and said she wanted to put new strings on it. So she went off and found a nice guitar store and bought a package of strings. Then, just to be sure, she went to YouTube and watched a short video on which way to wind the end of the string on the machine heads (or "tuners.") Then she grabbed the diagonal cutting pliers and cut off an old string and then carefully replaced it with a new string. Then she did each of the others, one by one. It was fun to watch her work so carefully. And I love the light in this photograph. It has some resemblance to the kind of lighting in an old masters painting.

Does she still play? That would make a great portrait.
She still does. I haven't heard her play in years, and was amazed at what beautiful music she made, just sitting there on the couch when she got the job finished.
It would seem your daughter is much like her father regarding her many talents....as is said, 'the apple doesn't fall far from the tree'
