Nice contest entry for the topic
I think you represent them very well and each of them has a nice energy you caught from them - great detail work on latterly everything as hair, clothing background - you have given your best and I wish you good luck

This is very nicely done!
The setting, all those faces and their expressions, especially the mother that would be a winner all on its own!
You diffinately seem to have your own style of things judging by this piece of artwork! Good luck with the contest!

Comment from Joan McKay


This is a very lovely family portrait. There is little I would criticize. The little boy's head could use a little more work. I would add a little more hair to the right side of his head because it looks a little too pointy. I would also change the colour of the glass. It would show more transparency if the very bottom of the glass could be changed to the colour of real class and the top of the glass should also show the same colour. However, it is still a beautiful painting and I especially like the portrait of the father figure.

    Thank you. I do appreciate Your input here. Someone else mentioned the pointed head of Angelo and I went back to my painting. I used a reference photo for each individually and.put them in our local cafe. My photograph is not true, all faces seem elongated in comparison so I need to reophoto. There is no view of the bottom of the gkass so I was puzzled. The mum is sitting on a blue chair and Angelo is in his pram. He is a bit big for it. Lol. The top half ofv the glass I might be able to lighten. The ref. Photo I used had an intense blue sky. I don't know if I can do anything with it now as i have varnish it. However your comments are truly valuable and o really appreciate that kind of input. Incidentally my portraits never mean to be photorealistic but more of a characature.

Interesting creation. The facial expressions is great. the body form and language is great. The shading is great. The blend of the colors is great. The details is great. the depth is great. The creation is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. Creative and great job overall

A nice work of art displayed here. The looks on the faces tell a story of happy family times and contentment.

Good details in the faces. The background makes the bright colors show even more.

The head/hair of the child on the left seems a bit pointed but not so much as to take away from the family scene.

Nice work and I wish you all the best in the contest ~ Steve

    Thank you for a super review. I note your comment 're pointed head...I looked at the original it seem ok I think it's my photo because the other two faces are slightly elongated compared to the original. I will have another go at the photo. Thanks for pointing this out.
Comment from alaskapat


I immediately like this! I like the expression on mom's face, I can see that she is a kind person, her two children are beautiful and I like that they both wear red the younger child is wearing a red vest over a different shade of red shirt, their faces are well created with good shape and structure, beautiful eyes! I like that you are showing them seated at the table in the cafe. They look very natural . This is very well created, arranged and presented! Best wishes to you in the contest!
