19 - 20 Independence Day Challenge

Our  creative workshop instructor, Heleni Shamai, often gives us challenges on various subjects... the latest Independence day... with or without the -day--  Critique will be this Tuesday the 1st of May... will probably take photos as usual of the works submitted....some of the concepts should be very interesting....

My concept is very simple.... cars and bikes are usually decorated with flags so painted from a photo of my grandsons riding on their bikes...added on the flags....

We bought Uri.3, a strider wooden bike a yr ago and he just now can reach the ground on it...
 oil pastels on A4 watercolor paper



Noam,7, riding his two wheeler.... this is my first attempt with gouache..... really way out of my comfort zone!!!  Have put this up on wetcanvas forum.. so may tweak from some suggestions!!!!



next challenge is TAXI  for the 22 Nd
