acrylic on masoniteI am wondering what the "dad" is gazing at out over the water.....
I think the biggest questions this painting posed for me were deciding on what blues to use and what brush strokes for the water. Instead of worrying about what was "right" ( like I have so often done in the past, over working the painting and taking all of the fun out of it) I picked the colors, decided on the brush work and finished it and realized that if I didn't like the result, I can do it differently next time!
Much more fun!

It's beautiful Annie! Can't believe you fit the whole scene in, and so expertly. Blues and brushwork are superb.

The reflections on the water are so beautiful!
Annie, beautiful painting. Love the colors and brushwork. Annie, there is a surprise waiting for you over at my blog. Come and take a look when you can. Joan
I love your brushwork on this, beautiful!
Annie, That's amazing how you made the original photo your own..it feels as if you knew the people in it...and that allows me to feel as if I know and recognize them too.
It's a wonderful tool and so interesting to see on the original site how people used it. I'm wondering what a sculpture version would look like.
