For My Mom

I had this idea to (try to) paint an image of my mother's childhood home along with her beloved dogs in a somewhat primitive style. It's still incomplete (a couple of perspective and detail issues), but time has run out before I drive back to Florida. Oil on stretched canvas 30"X40".

I like the primitive style surfermom. I think you have done a brilliant job. I'm sure surfermomsmom will love it.

Re: For My Mom

Wow SM that's quite something, a smashing painting. I do so envy people with artistic talent..

Re: For My Mom

Thank you both! Longdogs, the highlights are much more vivid than the photosharing indicates, but you get the idea. . I wanted something casual for her breakfast nook.

Re: For My Mom

Me too, Barry.

That is just lovely, Surfermom !

Re: For My Mom

Wow, just WOW

Lovely SM

Re: For My Mom

It's lovely .... there's not many pictures that actually make you want to stroll inside them but yours does as it's captured the atmosphere. How idyllic looking.

Your trees are wonderful, especially the foliage (plus cheeky little squirrel) and I love the dappled shade from the trees.

Re: For My Mom

I get it SM. We have a couple of Beryl Cook prints about the house. I like the simplicity.

Re: For My Mom

A lovely painting and a lovely surprise for your mum.
