It's been a very long time since I've had the paints out bloggy peeps! Too long. So I thought I'd start with something very simple...to ease me back into it...if you know what I mean.
A friend of mine became a grandmother last week, so I thought I'd make something for her new grandson...
I wanted to give the message that every baby is unique...
different in their own special way...
'like no other' in fact...
It's a very imperfect 'painting' I know (soooo out of practice) but I like the design...and I'll be working on it...perhaps I'll use watercolours next time...
Now I'm just waiting for someone to have a daughter so I can make a girly version...butterflies I'm thinking...
Oh, and you won't believe the plotting and planning I've done for the etsy shop...even bought a new sewing machine. Whoa...my first 'day off' Wednesday is looking jam packed already! But for now I'd better go and wrap this up and send it off!
Hope your week has started well...and once again, because I can't say it too much or too often...thank you so much for all your lovely comments and incredible support. It means heaps! It really does.

ReplyDeleteSo I take it you're going to be sewing on Wednesday - now you've got me intrigued. I'm looking forward to the report.
It's gorgeous - a great idea and perfect images for a little boy. Have fun on Wednesday. I mostly have Mon and Tues off to do my art but all the housework gets in the way - or blogging! SO make sure there are no chores to do before Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteVery creative and great colours for a baby's room. Looks like you had fun. Hope you don't add too much more to your first Wednesday off! Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! What a fantastic present for someone. Always so nice to have something unique :)
ReplyDeleteI love your artwork Kerry. So sweet and sentimental. I'm about to become an Aunt again and something like this would be perfect for my brother's new baby.

This is adorable! I love your idea of butterflies and I suppose there are several ways this could be done. Thanks for the inspiration!
