some thing different and fun !

the American Gothic Theme was requested by the Family and i think it looks cool..
we weren't going for a full out exact theme but close enough variation to know it was inspired by the Famous American Gothic photo..

Great set... I know you use the black borders for facebook, but I really think they add to this series more than most you post. Thanks for sharing

Very nice Phamster! I like 1,3, and 4, with 4 being my favorite. Brother and Sister in 3 is very good. The American Gothic in 1 works with them, though he reminds me of Carl Fredricksen from the Disney/Pixar movie UP.

Pham just to be nit picky,in #2 I would have had mom turn more toward dad her tummy & body are to open(don't have her arm around son) and the hair on the daughters left check would be better if it were pulled back a bit.
