It’s father’s day, so I’ve collected some drawings and paintings of artist’s fathers. Evidently fathers often read the paper, and sit in chairs. Note: The names listed with the artworks are the artist’s names, not the father’s.
SAL Challenge
Create a portrait of your father. Feel free to draw, paint, collage, sculpt…. any material you choose. If using a photograph, alter the photograph in some way, or set up a scene or still life to represent him.
Thankyou for sharingyourwork! I love seeing these artworks online. People who post to Instagram or on Facebook will be eligible to win prizes (see details). No matter where you post, tag us so we can find it. #seattleartistleague #salchallenge #father
