Broccoli Boy Finished

Broccoli Boy is finished or at least almost finished... and I love how it came to life at the end... I was not sure how to handle the background. Malleck, my little grandson, is the model for this painting. He loves broccoli and is one of the most magical little children I have come across. When I leaned into this magic, sparkling quality, my paintbrush just seemed to want yellow, sunny tones to express his amazing curiosity and imagination.
