About the Item

A lot of my work is about parenting. A lot of parenting is about knowing where to put and enforce boundaries. I like the metaphor in this scene. It is a portrait of family, a map of the inner working of it. :: Painting :: Fine Art :: This piece comes with an official certificate of authenticity signed by the artist :: Ready to Hang: Yes :: Signed: Yes :: Signature Location: front :: Canvas :: Portrait :: Original :: Framed: No

The Life Lesson, Painting, Acrylic on Canvas
By Amy Bernays
Located in Yardley, PA
Somehow it is easier to overpopulate a little painting and get away with it that in a big canvas. This little painting is crowded with life. The menagerie is my daughter’s depiction of her world, the animals within it. It is blued together with the depiction of a small crowd of children looking at the precious thing. We can half make out their forms. Still a little undefined, as things are when you are only half grown up. I like to paint the happy in life. Looking for those thoughts or moments that bring me joy and define my life. I paint my children. Not just their visage, but their being. Their play, their imaginative world as well as their real world. In this series I have the kids paint...
