“The Ladies”  
  
24 X 32 Inches
Collection: Higgins Maddigan
 

As the girls, McKenzie and Caitlin grew up and their great beauty and affection for each other was increasingly apparent, Higgins felt
it was time to record the sisters with yet another painting by Tonia. By now, the girls were well acquainted with the artist and had fun visiting her studio and sitting for their portraits.

Higgins’ comments: “My daughters had such a ball during their sittings that Tonia scheduled several extras during the process.  I am so enamored with the portrait that it hangs in my den - opposite my
desk; so I have the pleasure of my daughters’ presence during most thinking hours.”
