Sisters
12x18, pastel
What day is this? I have lost track! Day 13-15, "Sisters" is finally done! I am going to celebrate with a brat (a bratwurst not a spoiled child)...a beer...and a nap...in that order.
With the 30in30 I always seem to learn something every single day. With this one I learned if I go big...I've gotta pace myself because I'm not experienced enough to paint loose and fast. Oh well. I'm happy with the results even though I imagine I will continue to tweet it a bit.
These two sweet girls are my grand-daughters and are two of the best girls I've ever known. They've grown quite a bit since the reference photo was taken but this particular summer evening I remember well. A warm summer evening on the farm and a barbecue at their grandparents house to celebrate my son-in-law's birthday...what could be better?
The girls were glowing from the sun setting behind them. It was also pretty windy so their hair was flying all over the place! As you can see they were pretty intent playing with their dolls and were oblivious to just how awesome this scene was...or, is that just the opinion of this slightly biased grandma?
