Description

Oil Painting of three Ukrainian sisters posing for a photograph on a Canadian family farm in rural Manitoba.

This original artwork is based on a family photo from my (the artist) personal archives (exact date unknown – late 1960’s, early 1970’s). The woman in the middle is Alice, my baba. The name of this painting is directly taken from an inscription on the back of the photo that reads ‘Give this to Jack and Alice’. The three sisters are seen standing casually as if waiting for the photographer to take the picture, and have been captured in a natural pose. This deeply personal oil painting was recognized with a Silver Award by the Oshawa Art Association jury during the 2019 Annual Juried Exhibition.
