Beach Family Triptych


Oil on linen triptych.
4 1/2" x 11" each.
$150 - Shipping to US included.

This family at the beach is the current Different Strokes Challenge. I was glad to get some time after a trip to complete these. The poses seemed to isolate the individuals, so I decided to separate them into a triptych. They are together at the beach, yet isolated. I also really enjoyed how elongated the reflections were in the reference.

Something different on the painting challenge...I like the triptych. You are very expressive in your painting.

I love the way you opted to paint these three images. Very impressive!

Thanks for all of the kind comments.

When I decided to paint it as a triptych, I knew it would take a little longer. I took time over two days after getting back from a trip, so I just got it done before Karin's deadline.
