more watercolors and paper people.

been a busy couple of weeks....
this is what we have finished so far.

i decided to raise the prices a bit on my sihouettes.
they have become quite popular...i love making them!

finished projects.

a portrait commission in watercolor for chad and a silhouette for me. the buyer ended up wanting the chin 'streamlined' and opted for cream paper. she also asked to have her daughters name and the date under the silhouette in addition to my signature on front. we are so glad to wrap up these projects....happy weekend!

sleepy boy.

charlie.

this really wasn't the best photo as far as crispness, but i really liked the composition. i softened the edges and brightened the photo after cropping it. i think the softness works as he is sleeping. furthermore, this would make a great smooth.tone piece. this is when he still had longer hair. he has a super short, like 1/8th inch, buzz cut now...he says it is embarrassing to him to have it this short, but it will keep him cool this summer.

my girl.
