Josh and Breanna


It's always fun to have the opportunity to repay someone through something as personal as art. This is a little painting I did that reminds me of Hansel and Gretel walking through the enchanted forest. Gingerbread dead ahead just off to the right. Careful "witch" way you turn kids. Aren't they cute?

  2. They are lovely, Vern! The walk is a little hesitant, not too brave!

  3. vern,
    this is a fine painting...
    the subjects and the trees in the background are depicted in a fantastic manner...
    specially liked the merging of trees in the background...

  4. I love this, Vern. It reminds me of my children when they were small...many years ago (now they are 35 and 31 with children of their own!) This is lovely.

  5. Definitely "Hansel and Gretel" trepidation in the kids' body language. Very well done, Vern.

  6. Well done, Edward! The forest ahead takes on a mysterious look...better stay on the path!
    A great painting to involve viewers.

  10. You should write and illustrate a childrens book... wait a minute... I vaguely remember accusing you a couple of years back about being a mysterious author, so maybe-you already have?
