1936 portrait of a migrant mother living in a tent during the great depression with 3 of her 7 children.
Florence Thompson was 32 years old and a pea picker in California, Photo by Dorthea Lange.
If your wondering why she still has a look of stress, she purchased a house with a variable interest rate, and she,s worried about the huge mortgage payment due this month.
The picture on the wall is the tent Florence lived in. picture of the room is my personal picture I took.

Interesting idea. Good colorizing of the 'mother' photo. However, the perspective on the bed is different from that on the mother. I also think a home is more than a bed. And someone who now has a home should be cheerier than 'mother' is.
good work
Howdie stranger!
