"Young Mr. & Mrs. Smith" by Pat Koscienski

"Young Mr. & Mrs. Smith"
6" x 6"
Acrylic
SOLD
"Young Mr. & Mrs. Smith" was painted for James Parker's Windows to the Words Art for the November Thanksgiving Challenge. When I finished it, the little boy looked like a young Brad Pitt and the little girl, Angelina Jolie. Thus, the name, Young Mr. & Mrs. Smith. It is an acrylic painting on canvas done with a palette knife.

Young love - this is adorable. Really like your color choices in this, Pat.

Pat Koscienski said...

Ooooh, Claire, "Young Love" would have been more apropos as a title. Can't you just picture your grandchildren doing this?

Ohhh, Pat!! This piece is truly exquisite! I am amazed by palette knife painting and the amount of detail that you've (and other palette knife painters) achieved. The colors are phenomenal and symbolize to me the glow of the childhood innocence. Beautiful work!

Pat Koscienski said...

Thank you, Autumn. I'm glad the color affected you the same way. Pure innocence at that age. Happy Thanksgiving.

Pat Koscienski said...

Claire, Happy Thanksgiving.

Pat, I am convinced that you can do anything! Love the pallette knife work. You'll never get bored with such diversity!

Pat Koscienski said...

Lyn, thank you for your comments. I do enjoy trying different styles and techniques.

James Parker said...

Pat..sorry I ran a few days late posting this absolutely super artwork. Your skill with a palette knife is marvelous. These two are now happily posted and linked on WTTW ART. Thanks so-o-o-o,much for participating.

Thanks for the wonderful comments, James. I just figured you were still eating turkey or on vacation...or, just plain busy... I really appreciate the time you take to run the WTTW blog site, especially when you include artists, photographers, and writers. So, thank you for all that you do for us.

This is precious! So sweet! I've never tried palette knife with acrylic. The technique didn't work too well for me with oil! Your pieces make me want to jump in and grab the knife! Just love this one!

Pat Koscienski said...

Thanks, Rosemary. That technique doesn't always work for me also. I keep forgetting that you can get too fussy with the palette knife as well as with a brush.
