"I Felt the Baby Move!" watercolor by Kathy Michels


I am just getting started with this one and having such a blast. My two models were not related and this little girl was the baby of her family. As she placed her little hand on the mommy's tummy she felt the baby move. The expression on her face was priceless. It is so fun showing the softness in this painting and bringing out a rainbow of happiness and love through these soft colors. It is just one of those paintings that you can't put the brush down because it is such a joy to paint!
