Drawing in Progress for my next watercolor




I am excited to start on a new series of paintings here. I had a photo session recently with two mommies to be and a beautiful little boy from Haiti and two darling little girls (the little one here and the other is three and definitely loved the camera as much as it loved her). This little one had no hesitation when asked to give the new baby a hug. I still have a ways to go on the drawing but hope to start the painting on Wed. I did a closeup on my drawing here but the painting will show the entire mommy as well as full view of the rocking chair. I love doing the pregnant mommies as it is just such a peaceful and precious time. This one is done on a full sheet - 22" x 30".
