Hello, These two little fellows are brothers, they were commissioned by their grandmother as a gift for their mother for Christmas. The one is obviously a more traditional portrait and the other a fun photo of big brother in the pool. They are both oil on 8x 10 stretched canvases. Just sent off a painting of a cat for someone and I am working on a farmhouse but it doesn't have to finished until after Christmas. What is better than painting? Having someone love your work enough to want it hanging in their home. It is the best job in the world. See you soon.SOLD

Great job, Barb! Congrats on the commissions! I want to squeeze this little fellow! He is so happy and you captured that! Really like the way you handle painting hair - soft with great highlights! Really like what you did with the shirt too! Big brother is having fun and he's wet! Wonderful paintings. Mom is going to be thrilled!
You are so sweet Bill. I will have to try to find the Coca Cola ad you are talking about. I really enjoyed painting both of these but big brother was so different and really fun.
Thank you Rosemary, I'm glad you like them. You are sweet to visit and take the time to leave such wonderful comments.
The Mother and Grandmother both love both paintings!!! Thanks Barb from the Grandmother
Hey there Patty, Thanks for the comment and I love that you two love them.
