Leaving Home oil on canvas 6x6



  This painting attempts to evoke the scene of a young girl, and her younger brother, leaving home. She exudes the confidence of one approaching the end of the driveway. Her younger brother, no  doubt dragged along, appears a bit more hesitant. Her head is straight ahead, all business, while his is slightly tilted towards, perhaps hoping to catch of glimpse of mom. She is carrying the suitcase with treasured belongings-no doubt hers. This is one of a series of painting to evoke scenes from childhood.
