Circus, Circus

Before the Show, 22 x 28, oil on canvas, by Heather Dixon

The kids have joined the circus! Here is my recent painting of my children in this year's Halloween costumes. As usual we did our annual photo shoot but this year I wanted to do a painting as well. I liked the opportunity that a painting offered me to be completely whimsical. (There was not a pony at the actual photo shoot) I had so much fun with this painting that I may have to paint one based on their Halloween costumes every year!
