Hummel KIds


This is a portrait commission I just finished. They're so cute. They remind me of Hummel figurines. It measures 12.5 x 15.5 inches painted on Arches 140 lb. Cold Press. The Work In Progress is on my personal blog. ;)

Unusual technique using watercolors & twinkling H2O colors.

Well... this one was FUN!!!!
I've used the technique before, about 8 or 9 years ago, on a larger work. I've been going to do it on ACEOs but haven't seemed to get around to it. I was recently reminded of it in a current magazine, so decided to do one, and 'hit' on the idea of doing an octopus.

The auction is 3 days only.

MUST see to appreciate.
The listing had WIP photos of the process.
This shimmers with iridescent colors!
