We're family

This is my second painting of the year! My family portrait. Mary of course taking centre stage although she does look a little evil (she controls us) Portraits are never easy for me, I find it hard to get an exact likeness so I've painted a more cartoon version of ourselves. The plan back at the start of the year was to paint more, two paintings so far this year.....time to get started on number three, I'll stop thinking about it and get painting today!!
Is there anything creative you planned to do more of at the start of the year and still haven't pulled the finger out?
On another note, we cut the grass yesterday! Love the smell, love the team work (the big lad mows, I rake), can't wait to get out and do more in the garden!
Have a SUPER Sunday everyone!

  1. We love your family portrait! Might commission you to do one of us! Table still piled high with creative projects here - project rich but time poor though :-( off for a Sunday walk in the woods now then home for a slow cooked stew then off to a singing workshop while O watches the rugby. Enjoy your Sunday x

    1. Oh! I'd love to do one for you, would need to you to send me a photo of you all together, so far I've been for a run, cut the edges in the garden, the paint brushes have yet to come out! xx
