I just liked, subscribed and hit the notification bell. My cousin is an artist in England. She doesn't believe that anyone is fully educated unless they are educated in art. And this is why I am here now in my 40's making it a priority. I love this painting.

I honestly never noticed the guy controlling the swing or the dog let alone that every character was looking directly at her! I know that using perspective lines like that was popular like how all lines lead back to Jesus’s head in the last supper but I never considered that we could do that using the faces/attention of the characters!
