Say Cheese Frosty...Say CHEEEZZZEEE!
8x6, soft pastel
Oh my....Day Three of the challenge. After today, I had to ask myself:
1. I'm not comfortable painting snow...why did I tackle three snow scenes right off the bat?
2. I wish I had built in a few "easy and quick" painting days...I'm in dire need of an easy day!
3. I thought today would be easy since there was only one person in the painting...but I scaled the painting down too small (6x8)...a fatal flaw. Trying to get the likeness of my sweet grand-daughter was tough given that her face was all of one inch square. WHAT was I thinking? Eeeh gads!!!!
(A couple hours and one beer later, I feel much better. I refined Maddie's eyes and smile a bit and will call it good for today)
This snowy day on the farm wouldn't be complete without a nice big fat snowman! Maddie's smile was full on...as is often the case for a young child taking a picture. You can almost feel her exuberance. Now, if she could only get Frosty to "say cheese"!
