Superb painting Marjorie, great subject as well… so much better than a photograph stuck in an album!

It’s a superb painting Marjorie and certainly better than a photograph, the look of delight and pleasure on the young boys face is beautifully done.

Thank you Alan and Paul - I have a video of this, a “ scary” story for kids, “ What’s the time Grandma Wolf? “

A tender moment captured beautifully, Marjorie - the next painting I'm planning is of my father-in-law reading to my son... I promise I'm not copying you! :)

Delightful and I agree so much better than a photo.

A super painting Marjorie of a special moment. Captured beautifully.

I don't think I saw it first time round - it's really good.

Jan, Tessa, Denise, much appreciation, thank you.

A lovely moment shared beautifully captured!

Super painting Marjorie!

What a lovely painting Marjorie.

Marjorie, this is wonderful. I love the colours of the shirt, the light in the painting and you have captured the expressions amazingly!

Thank you , Christine, Linda, Sylvia and Diane - I’m so pleased the “ feeling” came through.

A wonderful record of a very special shared moment.

Beautifully painted Marjorie.

A beautiful, cross-generational portrait. Super work Marjorie.

Really lovely sense of light in this painting. The other comments say it all.

I really like it and I like the title too.

Such delightful expressions captured and wonderful use of light on the faces and clothing. A charming scene Marjorie.

Thank you so much Rikke, Spencer, Bob, Valerie and Carole. Lovely memories.

This is charming Marjorie, super painting.

I know exactly how 'Grandpa' is feeling, such a special moment when reading to a grandchild, they listen to every syllable and that physical closeness is just too wonderful for words but perfectly captured in a this painting.Beautiful Marjorie.

Thank you very much for your comments Katy and Russell.

A beautiful study and superb expression on the grandson's face.

This is a painting that tells a story. Love the expressions, so much joy and intimacy between the Grandpa and his grandson, beautifully captured.

A slight re working of a painting - you look at them again and your fingers itch! Oil on canvas, grandpa and grandson.
