EDITORS COMMENTS
In Marianne Stokes' captivating oil painting, "Childhoods Treasures" we are transported to a bygone era, the late 19th century. The artist skillfully captures the essence of childhood innocence and joy through her meticulous brushstrokes. Set in a rustic barn, our eyes are immediately drawn to a group of children gathered around an old wooden table. Their rosy cheeks and bright smiles radiate pure happiness as they engage with their cherished treasures. Strewn across the tabletop are various trinkets that hold great sentimental value to these young souls. Amidst the cluttered collection lies a bundle of straw, perhaps representing their rural upbringing or playful adventures in nature's embrace. Puppies frolic at their feet, adding an extra layer of warmth and companionship to this idyllic scene. Stokes masterfully employs light and shadow to create depth within her composition. The soft glow filtering through the barn's windows illuminates each child's face while casting enchanting patterns on the surrounding walls. "Childhoods Treasures" is not merely an exquisite work of art; it serves as a poignant reminder of simpler times when imagination reigned supreme over technology-driven distractions. It invites us to reflect upon our own treasured memories from days gone by – moments filled with laughter, exploration, and unbridled wonderment. This timeless masterpiece continues to captivate viewers today just as it did when first created in 1886. Its enduring charm reminds us that some things never fade away
