My inspiration behind Laughter is the Best Medicine was the creative photography of Annie Leibovitz, particularly her 1982 photograph of Paloma Picasso. This painting of my sister is a bit more conservative than Leibovitz’s work, but it pushed me to go beyond my usual portraits, telling the story with the model’s body language as well as her facial features.
