“Talk at a Cafe”

Talk at a Cafe

Maybe I need to write some lines about the scene of this work. In a coffee shop, a mother (standing woman, right) came to the next table to talk with her daughter (sitting woman, left) from the other table where the father is sitting (in the center of the picture). Models of these three are my mother and my grandparents.
I think I should have painted this work on a bigger canvas because there’re plural figures in the spacious tea room. I had been concerned about this small size (F10: 53.0cm x 45.5cm) since I started painting. I better make this work an esquisse for a larger sized picture? Well, this is too completed. I’m sure that repainting the same picture on a larger canvas will be non-creative. Unsuitable motif for a small size, maybe.
