Genevieve (2)

Genevieve, a big part of Joy’s whole life, her stepdaughter, has had mental difficulty since birth that necessitates constant caregiving to keep her life in order and happy. Genvieve obviously loves her cat which is lovingly included in this portrait as an important part of ‘telling the story’. The inclusion tells us a lot about Genvieve character in the middle of her ongoing difficulties and I’m sure we would all like to meet her.
