About the Item

I love to peer into boyhood. Like an intrepid anthropologist, I pull back the curtains of imaginative play and look into their world of makeshift slingshots and make believe war. The ferocious bite of his dinosaurs, informed by playtime with a little friend and a pet chicken. I like to paint the happy in life. Looking for those thoughts or moments that bring me joy and define my life. I paint my children. Not just their visage, but their being. Their play, their imaginative world as well as their real world. In this series I have the kids paint first, and I add to their drawing, to capture a little slice of their fleeting childhood. :: Painting :: Fine Art :: This piece comes with an official certificate of authenticity signed by the artist :: Ready to Hang: Yes :: Signed: Yes :: Signature Location: bottom right :: Canvas :: Landscape :: Original :: Framed: Yes :: Framed size 1.0"h x 1.0"w x 1.0"d

The Life Lesson, Painting, Acrylic on Canvas
By Amy Bernays
Located in Yardley, PA
Somehow it is easier to overpopulate a little painting and get away with it that in a big canvas. This little painting is crowded with life. The menagerie is my daughter’s depiction of her world, the animals within it. It is blued together with the depiction of a small crowd of children looking at the precious thing. We can half make out their forms. Still a little undefined, as things are when you are only half grown up. I like to paint the happy in life. Looking for those thoughts or moments that bring me joy and define my life. I paint my children. Not just their visage, but their being. Their play, their imaginative world as well as their real world. In this series I have the kids paint...
