What a beautiful loving scene, Michael, so very well captured!

Beautiful!!

Lovely - a really charming painting, beautifully done

Proper job Michael! Sensitive painting, very good.

You have captured a very special moment in a beautiful setting Michael. Love those rich blues.

Timeless classicism. I think these pictures ring a bell for all of us. One of my favorite family photos is very like this, my wife and our grandson looking out to sea, caught in the moment. Love your painting, Michael.

Thanks Carole and Lewis.

There are paintings and there are paintings Michael.....and we have this, a snapshot of a time, place and moment, to touch at the very least three people. A treasured memory and beautifully painted.

Lovely painting Michael.

I am drawing people from behind on the beach so that they cant see me drawing them. This is so intimate. Really nice.

Thank you Fiona, David and Val-Irene. This is from a photo taken by mam, Kerry. Matty and dad Tony. Matty is half brother to my two oldest grandaughters.

There is no way I can improve on Fiona's comment, but not to comment on this would be a tragedy. A tender timeless moment, well painted and speaks volumes.

Thanks for your inspiring comment Tony.
