I started this painting last year, but with commissions, I set it aside.

Finally, I had the chance to focus on this painting and I was looking forward to getting it done.

My reference - Photographer Patrick Schneider's image of a boy and his sister sitting comfortably on a rocker at a South Carolina vegetable stand.

I started on the right of the canvas, wanting to work on the boy and girl first.

One thing I probably should have done is tone the canvas, but I had already started the painting and decided to just go with it.

Here are some close up images of the painting:

And the finished painting:
