I had fun doing eight little child paintings, where I tried to capture them in some gentle activity. Of, course, I have stored images over the years, and these darlings are based on photos of my grandchildren when they were young and sometimes the child of a friend. My subjects never pose for my and I like to capture them when they are unaware.
I first painted the canvasses bright blue. This blue colour had an influence on all the colours I used, softening the colours and contributing to the delicate nature of my subject. Due to a much smaller gallery space, I paint in acrylics, which I love. I will show more of my kids next time.

ReplyDeleteWow -what a great set! Now that I have 2 little ones, maybe it has given me the ability to appreciate these in a deeper way -so, so cute! And the love of a grandmother that infuses these labours of love. :-)
