One of my sons sent me photos of his alpacas and goats. They have joined the collection of exotic birds, fancy chickens, and the resident dog and cat on Montevina Road in Los Gatos, California. Their job is keeping the grassy slopes trimmed. One photogenic alpaca caught my eye. When I saw the quirky expression, the crooked smile, and the wild hair do, I knew I had to paint him. I smiled throughout the painting process. I still smile every time I look at Omer. I call the painting "Hola, me llamo Omer!"
