About the Item

I painted this composition a number of times. It is a rumination on the shape of the relationships within family. The composition in quarters, half just my favorite yellow. The color of warm California sunshine. The left side children, right side adults. Topside landscape, half man made, half nature; all in nostalgic pastels. Thats how I see it. How I thought about it while making it. Do you need to know any of that? It is also a image of a moment in life. A happy day, just a memory of a fleeting moment. Something simple and ephemeral, caught on the wind and painted down so you can hang that moment on your wall. :: Painting :: Fine Art :: This piece comes with an official certificate of authenticity signed by the artist :: Ready to Hang: Yes :: Signed: Yes :: Signature Location: front :: 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...
