| At The Hip Watercolor 25.5 x 16 |
Oh Yes!...a scene that I am very familiar with...dressing up young boys for a formal event...in this case, a wedding. These young lads...cousins...are ready to attend the wedding of their uncle. Baseball caps and ties askew are part of the look.
I began with what is a darling photograph, and tried to give it a bit of my own flavor with capitalizing on their joint gesture. The faces have been underplayed. The horizontal line of the arms and waistbands of the trousers have been given dominance. These boys are besties! Color is kept to a minimum.
I like this work...and it represents much of which I hope to achieve in future paintings.
