This is the second of two father and son pieces I painted for my last solo show. I loved the Babar books when I was a kid and painting this really brought me back to my childhood when my parents read to me all the time. I'm finishing up several new father/son paintings for my show coming up in New York at @spoke_art. 'LAX / JFK' is being curated by the folks at @thinkspace_art and opens on November 11th from 6-10 PM. Save the date! 🐘📕 Prints of this painting available at grabelsky.etsy.com
The image depicts a man and a child seated on a red bench, with the man's head and upper body replaced by an elephant, and the child's head and upper body replaced by a smaller elephant. The man is reading a book, and there is a backpack on the bench.
