Description

This oil painting on canvas portrays a young child standing in a doorway, holding back a blue curtain with one hand and grasping a doorknob with the other. The artist captures a tender and curious moment, using soft shading and a limited palette of blues and neutrals to highlight the child’s expression and innocence. The painterly technique, with smooth blending and gentle brushwork, gives the piece a timeless, sentimental quality.

Signed in the lower right by Charlotte McKinney, this work reflects the approach of a contemporary portrait artist, possibly active in the southeastern United States. The ornate silver-toned frame with floral detailing complements the calm tones of the composition. Based on materials and construction, the painting likely dates from the late 20th to early 21st century and was custom-framed by a professional service, suggesting it may have been commissioned as a personal or family portrait.
