Here's a little painting I've been working on. I've photographed it in my hand to give you a sense of scale. (I think that photo makes my hand look gargantuan which it is not...so I will give you the actual dimensions of the paper too -- it measures 2½ x 3¾ inches.)
I love working small and used to paint miniature formats exclusively. Now I also paint bigger at times too, although 'bigger' to me is not the same 'bigger' to someone else. :)
I have also been working on my Pathway painting, adding details here and there. I wonder if you can see the difference?
It is a grey and rainy day here, but I'm about to brave the elements, as my fluffy, four-legged friend doesn't mind any kind of weather. We're off for a rainy walk. We may even walk along the pathway.

(Speaking of my canine companion, I have just discovered that, while I was writing this post, he was eating the corner of one of our sofa cushions. I heard him chomping but thought he was working on a toy. I most definitely need a walk now!)
Around here the household item of choice to nosh is currently area rugs.
ReplyDeletefroggy -- Meeko has a varied diet. He also ate the dust cover off of one of my nice gardening books this week. :)

ReplyDeletethis one, i love love it. it will be nice to have post card like that.
ReplyDeleteYour paper is almost like washi. do you use washi paper(http://www.japanesepaperplace.com/abt-japanese-paper/about-washi.htm) or canvas?
Coco -- Thanks so much! This painting is on very thick 300 lb. Arches watercolour paper. I haven't tried painting on washi paper but I know the Japanese Paper Place (Nancy Jacobi used to buy my greeting cards many years ago). I hope to print some images and sell them on Etsy in the near future.
