This mixed media painting was a baby shower gift for my friend Stesha. Her first baby, Evangeline, will be here soon and I wanted to make her something special. The color palate was a challenge for me. I usually go bright but knowing that the baby's room is a sophisticated pink and grey, I tried to tame it down a bit. I was going for soothing but there for a while it looked like I was inspired by Lord of The Rings. ha ha I like the end result - a bit make believe but still light and airy. My favorite part is the moth with angel wings. Please forgive the awful lighting. I forgot to take pictures until late afternoon and it was time to wrap the painting for delivery. These pictures will have to do.
