'Summer's Children'



learning skills for life

Inspired by the myriad of water activities I enjoyed as a child,

and growing up with yachts, dinghies, boards and the beach...

...always the beach....this painting just had to have

some 'little tackers' in life jackets.

I've been tweaking and fiddling with the face of this little fellow

right up until the last minute....but now he must be varnished

because he's off to the Camberwell Art Show.

His mate too, has been through a few incarnations....

sometimes these little guys seem to fly off my paintbrush...like this one...

others misbehave...and take their time ....
