The happy mother and pensive child – leaves me wondering what they are observing – an older son playing with a pet perhaps, the child feeling left out. It takes good work to bring out such thoughts.
I like how the background is really quite dark for a ‘summer day’ painting. It gives it a fresh voice, and really brings out the warmth in the subjects, who beam of all that summer is about.
love the colours, love the Mom’s expresssion, love the child expression…yes, me too…I remember a similar chair, the stripes…lovely watercolour Elena.

I love the rich colours in this. Essence of summer!
I believe I have a slide somewhere that has me sitting in a very similar chair from when I was quite little. : )
Isn’t it lovely that many of us all originating from different places, remember a common fabric or design of a chair? We all share a memory from a time gone by. Thanks Karen.
