Ideas come very easily with you, incessantly, like a stream. With me, it is a tiny thread of water. Hard labour at art is necessary for me before obtaining a waterfall.

Hug

 

I'm working on this tonight...

Still have some work on it to do, like the dad's hand, and maybe some work in dad's right cheek - shadowing and such. I'll probably post the finished work later.

ETC: I think I'm done... I'll consider it again tomorrow.

It's interesting to me that while painting, I don't really think much about color. It's very much a gut instinct. The dad's face brings out a lot of that crazy color thing...

Nutty. Somehow, it works though.

I'm not sure I like his hand yet... I might fix it tomorrow.

MORE ETC: Now I'm done... I should know better - I never wait until tomorrow when a painting is almost finished. It's like trying to wait until Christmas morning.

All I can say is AWWWW
I love the child's dark eyes.....they say everything. That and the smle. Safe in Dad's arms.
The only thing, and maybe this is your scanner, but dad looks ill. Too much gray in the face and hand. And his hand looks too bony. The fingers are too long or something. But the kid....very endearing and the background colors look great too
