This is a painting of my son and his Great Grandpa. I wanted to capture my Grandfather's quiet contemplation as he watches the bundle of energy and life that flows out of his Great Grandson. Sounds corny I know but I find the contrast between the two of them fascinating. Looking at it now I see that I need to adjust the hand that is behind Evan's head, but other than that I am quite happy with this attempt.
Nice palette work Tammy! Love how you handled your sons hair.
ReplyDeleteYou've certainly caught that difference between the two. Love the luscious paint.
ReplyDeleteNow that you've mentioned it, Tammy, I too like the contrast between the quiet contemplation and the ebullience that is your son. The textures too in this piece are brilliant!
ReplyDeleteLove all the texture in this. I am always amazed at the life and detail you command from that knife!
