This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled Boy from the Taylor Family designed from a painting by William MacGregor Paxton shows a young boy in a striking red waistcoat and ruffled collar leaning against a stone pillar while holding his bow. In creating this, Paxton no doubt wanted to capture the youthful spirit of his subject, finding beauty in the soft light of a quiet afternoon. The palette is a mix of deep charcoals and vivid crimsons that add to the drama of the scene! It captures the scent of old stone and the warmth of a fading day. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. Instead, we use a variety of solid colors to achieve a more realistic effect.
