WE ARE FAMILY by Nina Nolte

WE ARE FAMILY is an original acrylic on canvas painting by Nina Nolte, created in 1999. Measuring 130 x 93 cm (51.2 x 36.6″), it is part of her iconic CHICOS series.

Set against a playful red and pink checkered background, the artwork features a charming family trio: It could be a couple or two sibblings, and their loyal little dog.

The figures are depicted in Nina Nolte’s unmistakable signature style—bold black outlines, minimalistic yet expressive, infused with a sense of joy and togetherness. A stylized yellow star shines above the family, adding a whimsical, almost celestial touch.

Nina Nolte captures the essence of familial bonds with simplicity and warmth, celebrating innocence, unity, and love. With its bright colors and cheerful composition, WE ARE FAMILY is both a nostalgic and modern statement—an artwork that radiates happiness and evokes fond memories of childhood and close-knit relationships.
