"Mr Bear", oil on panel, 6x6 inches
This teddy bear belonged to my daughter and now hangs out with a gang of stuffed animals in her baby's bedroom. I must admit, since becoming a grandmother, I'm finding many things to do with babies suddenly very interesting to paint.
Painting dailies allows me to experiment and challenge myself with all the quick starts and finishes that a small format provides. One of the best things about painting these little miniatures is that I can paint anything I want to and have fun with it; Mr Bear was no exception.
He's a sweetheart, Bobbi! I love the complexity of your rendering of the fur. It looks like it was fun.
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely little piece, Bobbi! I especially enjoy the rendering of the fur. It has complexity but no fussiness. Nice work!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ingrid! I really had fun with this one ... these little furry bears have renewed my respect for wildlife painters :)
