A couple of months ago just for the fun of it I started doing paintings of photos that people posted on my Facebook page,  The painting you see of the boy kicking a soccer ball is one of those paintings.  It is very interesting to see all the different photos that people post.  There is no hidden agenda, no trick, no spam - just me painting from images people have posted.   What really surprises me is that so few people have submitted a photograph.  I'm not saying these are the best paintings in the world but they are interesting and challenging for me - which is one of the reasons I have been doing it. - A painting a week.
