6 x 6 oil on canvas panel NFSwell...i received a commission of sorts today! tillie and oliver are visiting for the day and tillie wanted to paint along with me as i did my daily painting. while we were thinking about what to paint, she said:..."what about Bear?"
...so it started with bear and then we added tillie's crocs, and then we had to find a stunning background to play a part and she settled on this fabulous green and black and white polka dotted fabric.
...now bear is VERY old - probably as old as tillie and that means 6 and three quarters...so as you can imagine she, bear, is quite bedraggled - those are real blue stains that might have been ink at one time and tils wanted me to be sure and include those. she set it up just the way she wanted it and commented as i went along, all the while creating a fabulous painted flower pot and a gorgeous pastel drawing of her own.
...it was so much fun to have her here with me and orchestrating every move. i think she's going to love this special little painting for a long long time! it's signed "ganny" and it's all hers!
