More portraits of my kids

Posted on by reytronix

A few more paintings of my kids from different times.

Cute mistake: Like all other toddlers, my 3-year-old son did this cute mistake while playing hide and seek. He believed he would be invisible when he covered his eyes. The staircase in our house was his favorite hiding spot. He has turned 5 now and he eventually figured out this hiding technique is ineffective. I tried to capture his innocence in this painting. It is approx. 8×10 inches on watercolor paper using Craypas and Mungyo OPs.
Another beach fun painting on a watercolor paper (6×8 inches) using line and wash technique.
Sweet dream! A tiny portrait of my 7-year-old son (Rey) sleeping. It’s only 3.5×5 inches using Craypas and Mungyo oil pastels plus colored pencils for sharp edges.
Joy of riding that first bike. A 5×7 inches oil pastel sketch.

Some early sketches

Last year, I rediscovered some of my old sketches I created with pencils and watercolor during my middle and high school years.

Napoleon’s grand army on its way back from Russia: This sketch was from August 1, 1993 when I was in 8th grade. I sketched this on my notebook with pencil and watercolor. I used a reference picture from a book on USSR history, the details of which I don’t recall.
