Nicholls Family

 Acrylic and ink on wood, 2x4'

2012

These are my amazing relatives-and yes, that's how they spell "Nicholls." I believe the picture I used as a reference was taken sometime in the 1930s.

I did this painting on a piece of stained plywood and painted with India ink, acrylic, and coffee. The coffee was an experiment; it mainly lightened the wood just a little. I may try tea next...
