Family is the first piece that I created in 2 scales. I made the small one first to get the general idea, then created the larger (6.5 foot tall) version. I use what is closest to me for inspiration as most artists do, and when making the small Family, my daughter had just been born. The element that represents the smaller sibling is like a swaddled baby in the small Family, but by the time I created the large Family she was already a fidgety toddler, so her element reflects that.
