We Are All Family

We Are All Family

6.5x3.5, pastel and ink

 

In keeping with my Family Matters theme...a simple reminder to the human race of what's important in this life.  Painted in my family's favorite colors.

The Village - Holiday on Ice

The Village - Holiday on Ice

11x14, soft pastel

It's such a festive time of year...and a busy one! I finally found time to finish this painting, complete a few framing tasks and make Christmas cards.  

Recently I went to the Village and took quite a few pictures of people skating and added them to the photos I took at Thanksgiving with my four youngest grandkids who were also skating. This painting is the result. I even found space to add several other family members even though they weren't actually there. Ah, artistic license!  Ultimately, I was able to fit in all the grandkids and their parents and grandparents. It was a fun project, a challenge, and a painting that will always be dear to my heart.   

Happy holidays everyone!
