If I did any of these it would have to be for my portfolio. It would take too much explaination to have this in my home. We are not tuxedo people most days - we are shirtless around the pool people. (well, the boys at least). And if it were for my portolio - wouldnt it be better to have something more people would be interested in doing with their own children? How many people really want their children painted in a tuxedo? Then again - maybe that IS the types I need to target.
If I were going to paint one of my family for just myself - exactly what I wanted ....it would be all of us dressed similiarly casual and piled all over each other like a bunch of monkeys. We can't sit down to watch tv without the kids all piling on us. There are other couches...other chairs, but that want to be on our laps - squished all together. So that is how I'd paint us. I've wanted to do this for years - my youngest is getting older and I want to do it before he gets any bigger. I just want to come up with a pleasing natural composition. I may go scope out the zoo for ideas.
