Artist statement
This painting invites the viewer to a playground where family love reverberates through the laughter and shared joy of two siblings. At the heart of this scene are a 10-year-old brother and his 5-year-old sister, partners in play, collaborators in a game of “freeze tag”.
Here I try to capture a moment of pure delight as the siblings work in tandem to evade their playful mother, the designated "it" in their game. As the two siblings weave through the park, their smiles gleam with the shared delight of childhood, and their eyes sparkle with the excitement of the chase. Each glance and gesture become a testament to the protective love they share, a love that runs deep in the fabric of their family.
"Love Runs in the Family" seeks to celebrate the resilience and strength found in family connections. The collaboration between the siblings in the game of freeze tag becomes a metaphor for the ways in which love binds us together, encouraging cooperation, and fostering shared joy.
As part of "The Look of Love: Art as a Love Language," this painting invites us to consider the diverse expressions of love within a family unit. It is a visual ode to the enduring power of sibling bonds, the playful spirit of childhood, and the unspoken language of love that unites us all. Most importantly, this time of play with our niece and nephew was a gift and a lovely opportunity to build deeper connections with their entire family.
