I haven't done this for a while. I had to post a painting from my website because yesterday's daily painting was a .... learning experience. That's a nice way to say my mother wouldn't hang it on her refrigerator if I gave it to her. It was that bad. Not to fret though, I did go out to paint and I did actually learn something from the experience. I learned I need a seat when I paint outside. Squatting in the back of my truck has a negative impact on the quality of the work.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy this piece. I worked from a photo and enjoyed painting the expressions on the children's faces as they spotted some city wildlife in the park.
Backlit figures are an interesting challenge. If you catch the light the figures really glow.
Class trips were always an adventure at his age. Of course the adults body language speaks for itself.

Beautiful painting Peter. Love the little guy looking back over his shoulder and poining. This painting glows!
It does more then glowing, it makes every one who sees it smile.
Gorgeous painting.

This one is a winnah! Sooooo cute. I'm with Louis...I also love the little guy looking back. He is definitely a focal point.
