This something a little different where I wanted to experiment with themes, composition, shapes, tree building, backdrop for miniature...

Might not be your cup of tea, but maybe you can get something from it :)

Let me know what you think!

Nurturing an idea

spark of passion
glowing bright
brave
aching with anticipation
restless
joy grows from within
team work
a friend yet to be met

    I like it! Tell us the story behind it :)

    • Wade

      Thanks Matt :D We just had our second child and it will most likely be the last. I also had this mini for sometime and knew I wanted to paint it at some stage because there aren't many (any?) sculpts of pregnant women. It seemed like the "right" time. So I put a lot of my feelings and thoughts into the project to process them and get some closure ;) I felt restricted in my last two projects, so I decided to read about composition and themes in canvas art and go a little crazy here.
