ORIGINAL PAINTING

PAINTING OF CHILDREN THROWING SNOWBALLS

I painted this watercolor painting called DEFEND OUR FRONT YARD for my story book for children aged 4 to 8 called "MY BROTHER AND I" by Hanne Lore Koehler. This story is about two brothers and the sports, games and activities they enjoy through summer and winter seasons as they grow up together. Like most children, they have a special wish for a pet which, for now, is confined to their imaginations - and mine. In this fun winter scene, the children are defending their front yard from their snow fort in a neighborhood fun snowball fight while their frightened imaginary dog peeks out from behind the snow fort.

We are very lucky to have two wonderful grandsons upon whom I based this story. The boys are close in age and have always played together and enjoyed each other's company, growing up not only as brothers but as friends. Like most proud grandparents, we have an endless supply of family photos that I was able to use as reference in order to keep the facial features of the characters in the story consistent. In painting details of the children and their imaginary dog, I let the colors of their clothing seep into the wet background scene to give the illusion of movement. For the background of this watercolor painting, I dropped some splatters of wet blue pigment and water into the wet paper canvas to create the impression of trees covered in freshly fallen snow.
