This 14x11 acrylic was enormous fun to paint. I made it for our brand-new (well fairly new) 9-month-old grand-nephew's first Christmas. I tried to paint a three-dimensional puppet rather than a cartoon, and used photos of figurines as well as the Disney illustrations. Here are some steps in the process.
WONDERFUL - just the right amount of realism and so well painted. This will stand the test of time and be treasured into the next generations. A gift of love.
Such a lovely, thoughtful comment, Julie, plus you included another in reply to me on your blog. What a generous friend you are! I'm sure everyone who follows you is touched by your encouraging, giving personality. I'm so pleased to be part of that charmed circle.
Nicely done Helene - what a wonderful gift and keepsake for the baby! Happy New Year!
