"Lift Me Up" Colored Pencil by Charlotte Yealey
9 x 12
Colored Pencil
I was going through old photos and remembered that this was one of my favorites so I created it in colored pencil. My husband and my granddaughter-she is now 13. I loved the way the light made them glow and I tried to capture that.

I love the little girl's joyful expression, and the soft lighting. This is a terrific painting!
I like the backlighting... pure joy!
What a beautiful painting, Charlotte! The composition is just amazing and you captured a wonderful moment in time. Your husband looks young!
I agree with Claire- what an expression.
No wonder it was one of your favorites.
"You Light Up My Life"....that's what I'm singing as I view this painting...
Babies are so difficult to paint--sometimes the lines are not soft enough making them look like little old people. Your rendition looks like an adorable, happy toddler--brings me back to the joys of our grandchildren as babes, now 19 and 17--beautiful job.
