IN PROCESS: "Snuggle Bunny," 12" x 16", acrylics on a museum quality panel, depicting the infamous Nita (I've painted her more times than my own dog!) and her beloved bunny, $629 (when finished) to the first one asking nicely.
Inquiries via email, please and thank you!
In process pics are on the studio's Facebook page. I'll continue working on this one - I hope to have her finished by dinnertime!
Then it's Spring Break!! I'll be playing a little harder than usual next week but I won't stray far from the studio. And I've painted a little ahead, so i have a couple pieces I'll share on the days I'm off.
Happy Easter to all - and if you don't do Easter, find something wonderful to celebrate in it's stead!
Fondly
