Thanksgiving Survey 2026: Painting

A painting by Older Daughter,
painted when she was a teenager.

Our family has much to be thankful for in this present moment, notwithstanding our personal physical troubles and the compelling troubles of our nation and the world. 

And this present moment is the time to bring you the Common Household’s now ancient tradition (15 years!) of  the Thanksgiving survey.

Thanksgiving Survey:  

Painting



1.  Name one painting you have never seen in real life for which you are thankful, and why.


2.  What is your favorite painting?  Please provide a brief description of that painting.


Bonus: if you are willing/able, provide a digital likeness of the painting(s).



Family members often find unique interpretations of the wording I use.  What is a painting?  What is your definition of “in real life”?  Is it possible to have a favorite painting?


Happy Thanksgiving Preparation Time!


Pie baking is a different kind of art.
