Today’s prompt of “Family Fun” opened an artistic can of worms for me. I don’t draw or paint people very often – if at all. So, if you are going to do a family, it seems to me you want to include human beings in the mix. I thought of maybe a family of ducks out for a paddle, but that felt rather chicken! So, here are my contributions.
This is based on a really cute photo of two little kids doing laundry together. As a kid, pretending to be a grown-up is fun.
This one is also a bit outside my comfort zone – silhouettes of people. They didn’t turn out too bad. The dog was fun, too. I liked the idea of dancing on the beach at sunset, playing with dog (who is dancing as well), and just having a wonderful time at the end of the day.
Family fun is about simple things – the things that bring people, related or not, together in memorable, pleasurable moments. Enjoy those you have – go dance on the beach, play in the mud, and have a great time.
Both paintings are wonderful and certainly depict fun! I love the silhouette.

Thanks, Sharon. The silhouettes are certainly better than those poor kids
