Street Kids
By Don Ledingham on Nov 26, 2007 in Personal Lessons, personal

We recently went to see Joan Eardley’s exhibition at the National Gallery for Scotland. I loved her paintings of Street Kids- see below. It reminded me of a photograph I took of my own kids when they were small. I’ve played around with photoshop to try to recreate Eardley’s feel - and failed miserably.
It’s work like Eardley’s which reminds us why we are in the job.

Hi Don
I posted about my recent visit to this wonderful exhibition too. This was my first exposure to her work and it has really caught my imagination. I so agree with you about why working with children is so important.
