Chris asked my to paint this picture of his three children as a present for his wife on her birthday. I always hope to hear how well these presents are received and in this case Chris tells me Jill was surprised and delighted so that made my day.
I must say that they are a lovely family with three very good looking children.
Watercolour, pastel and coloured pencils on matboard.

Thank you Linda. You always lift my mood with your kind comments. I must say those highlights on noses and eyes are the most enjoyable parts to paint.

Yes, they are. Excellent portrait painting, Brian. A fine mixture of media. The highlights on the eyes, noses and lips, are excellent. Skin tones and colours are so realistic.
Your kind words are greatly appreciated Colin. I hope things are going well for you and we’ll see more of your work on RB.
