Sisters



Color pencils on a 6x6" wood panel

This is my participation for the Art Block for Ghana, a beautiful project from which all funds will help build a school/house for orphaned children in Ghana, West Africa.
The theme was "home".
This represents my sister and I when we were little hiding underneath the table during tea time. I've been really inspired by the impressionism movement lately and a certain nostalgia of the 19th Century (reading many wonderful novels from that period).
I didn't planned to do something so personal for this project.....
And I feel a bit sad now to let it go to auction ... But who knows, my mom may want to buy it in the end ?!

Oh I have a true weakness for teatime, maybe because when I was young I used to do the same thing you and your sister did! With such a sweet story of course it had to turn out in such a beautiful illustration, I know how it feels letting it go to the auction :) I hope your mom will bid on it! have a great week Genevieve :*
