"Boys just want to have fun" - Oil Painting

A great painting Avril typical boys.

It looks fabulous Avril!! I love the way you painted the wet part of the beach, it is perfect. And the little guys are wonderful! Well done!

What an amazing Masterpiece!

hey this is cute takes me back to my childhood and family holidays befor the world turned nasty love the tones and colour in this really adds to the warmth of the picture

So lovely, I particularly like the boy in the centre with his wrinkled shorts and spilling bucket. Lovely detail throughout

Great painting, Avril, I bet your friend is well pleased with the result !

That is just so brilliant and natural Avril xxxx

A painting that has taken me back to my childhood, thank you Avril for that opportunity.

This is so Cool…. Lovely..

Having had 5 sons of my own, all I can say is “I love it!”

Avril this is great, love the feeling to this, the innocence, the activity, the colors, marvelous job :)

I bet LIsa is over the moon with it….what an excellent painting and they are definitely having fun..beautiful

Awesome, great bright colors amazing details. Love it

What a fabulous painting – and a great story to go with it. I am sure Lisa will treasure this always! A hearty pat on the back to you, Avril, for doing a great job!!

Another beautiful painting my dear friend and Lisa must be over the moon, I would be that’s for sure. I bet when they grow up they’ll build a raft and become the “skinny dipper’s”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Superb art dear Avril….......

this is great Avril, that one in the front looks like a cheeky monkey,,very well done indeed :)

What a fabulous piece of work!!

LOL!! I would be the one under the sand breathing through a straw.

Beautiful painting Avril.

Fabulous work Avril! Love the detail!

I think all you would see from my boys today would be running after their kids, watching girls, and surfing. I’m the only one who still believes in sand castles.

Ha, OK – you’re on – next time x

Ah ha, Avril what can I say. I just love this painting and will definitely be buying it through RB. I have just had all three boys on my knee looking at it and they had big grins on their faces. Oli, the eldest, couldn’t believe how you knew how to paint them! The representations are very realistic and the actions and nature of each boy are spot on! I cant thank you enough Avril. Lisa X

Fantastic work Avril…..beautifuly done! What an honor to have you do such a wonderful painting for Lisa and her three sons!

This is wonderful Avril!! It reminds me so much of some of the classics of children. You do have SO much talent!!! Hugs….XXXXX

Deal – may not be such a good deal for you though – one of those boys is better at this game than me!! :)

How I WISH that the innocence did not have to be lost! I dreaded to see my son, come to the age….where he began to realize that the world was not all fun, and games….and fairness… :o

LOL Just to cute , the oldest one is smart LOL Great job Sis :) huggggggggz

Featured Work -

Avril, this is cute and the background is also beautiful. it brings to my mind our forthcoming visit from our son who married an English girl and my plans to take our granddaughter and grandson (who we haven’t met and he will be going on three) to the beach which we have plenty of down under, with spades and all. 9 weeks to go!

Avril – one other comment I forgot to mention, you have captured their natures perfectly in your story of the picture. Well done on being featured! I’m rather proud!
