Changing the Media Changes the Message

I was going for something softer, looser, while keeping the basic shape of the design in the fabric sample for the client.

So I switched to watercolor paper, 300 lb. cold press for texture, used watercolor instead of acrylic paint, rounded some of my lines, and outlined in a soft brown pen instead of the stronger black. If you click on each you can see the differences. The one on the right is softer, more childlike, which is what the client wanted.

I think it was a successful change, don't you?

Changing Styles

Here I am trying to get these three pictures to line up across the top, and can I do it? NOOOOOO! Easily frustrated, and computer illiterate. That's me.

Anyway, I'm working on a new design and trying to come up with a better flavor for the design I want it to resemble some work I did about 8 years ago when my grandson was just born. It was the basic design that went with his room that we were working on. So this last one is the style that I'm going for. Hope I get it to show at the bottom of this page. And I'll show a picture of it when it's done. That is if I get it right!
