8"x22" - Princess on a Pea

I have been pretty busy painting custom pieces for the past few weeks, as well as wrapping up my projects for my watercolor class.

I was in bad need of a 'just for fun' project!

I had this 8x22 "scrap" of nice 300gms Arches hot press watercolor paper that was waiting to be painted on... so I decided to revisit my little Princess on a Pea theme, this time in a larger size (the original one was 5x7), and with many more mattresses stacked on top of each other...

Thanks to the violinist, this princess is sleeping soundly through the night!
I'm working hard on completing a few other paintings - stay tuned!

Work in progress - Kirsten - Finished!

I finished another painting a few days ago. Remember the 12x14 painting of my youngest sister Kirsten, playing her Cello that I've been working on in my watercolor class? Well here it is!


I feel pleased with how it turned out. I have learned so much in my watercolor class!
