Big Brother, 28X36, acrylic on canvas board



My first attempt at painting people. Such an age difference in my children - I loved how they looked walking on the beach together, just chatting like brothers and sisters do but the little one (typical female) believes in her little girl mind that she's equal (hey it's her brother) and even bosses her brother around telling him what to do like a “little mother” sometimes. But, the big brother is old enough to know the reality - he's so much older and knows a truer reality – however he loves the little sister so he respectfully “plays along” on her level yet notice the protective hand he carefully places on little sister’s shoulder.
