Family Life

Definitely happy times for Suzette.  [Micron + watercolor.]

Odious Comparisons

Ioc, a well-known visitor for some people...   [micron + colored pencils.]

Dangers Everywhere

And the dangers, or potential dangers, become more and more complex over the years.  [micron + watercolor.]

Responsibility

[micron+colored pencils.]

Terra Cotta

 

Occasionally Victor would play with clay.  Suzette was very fond of this little family portrait.  [acrylic on paper/ thank you to Henri Moore.]

Personal note: feeling sluggish and repetitive.  May need a bit of time off.  Or a good refreshing weekend? 

Expectations and Heartaches.

 

 Again, the stuff life is made of.  Emotions are always the same; the scenario changes a bit.  [watercolor.]

Laughter and Tears

 

Laughter and tears...  What life is made of, really.  [watercolor.]

Contentment and Pride

 

Moments of parenting.  [watercolor.]

Pure Joy

 

At home or at the library, remember these moments?  [watercolor.]

A Little Fantasy

 

A little embroidery by Suzette from these days of early motherhood.  [gouache+pencil]

Embracing Reality

 

Trying out a little abstraction here.  [micron + PS color.]  

Letting Go

 

Was Suzette the only one with this very sedate dream?  [watercolor.]

If I had time, I would redo this picture with the pink cloud changed to a popping bubble.   But I can barely keep up this week. 

Family Portrait

 

 Suzette, Victor and Yolita.  A family portrait by one of their friends, Paolo Pistachio, master embroiderer.  [acrylic on paper.] 

Years passed...

 

...and Yolita grew.  [watercolor.]

Happy Home

 

What a different feel from 2 winters before, in the cozy little home of Suzette and Victor.  And now Yolita.  

Ride Home

 

The day Yolita came home was a joyful one.   [acrylic on paper.]
