Fairy Painting

Yesterday I delivered a painting to my friend, Kristy, that she ordered for her little girl's room. The painting was based on the bedding in the room, which is so cute, colorful and girlie! Here is a picture of one of the pillow shams that she let me borrow for guidance:

She also e-mailed me lots of helpful pictures of different parts of the bedding and other decorations in the room for color matching, etc.

Here's the painting before I went back and used a darker blue on her eyes because I realized that they didn't show up very well! (I thought I took another picture after the eye update, but I guess I just meant to and forgot to actually do it).

I thought the little bluebirds on the sham were so cute (especially their tail feathers), so I used a few of those on the canvas:


Thanks, Kristy! It was a fun one to do!

My daughter has some of that bedding (the sheets). It's so cute. That is an adorable canvas. Well done. I'd pay for one for sure.
