A little over a week ago Gia Canali, wedding photographer and all around great gal, stopped by and gave me two vintage process photos. (Pictures will be taken and posted very soon.) To thank her for being so lovely I gave her this painting:


Why do I love it?
It is loose and sort of unfinished, the colors are soft with a few darks thrown in and I love how the baby deer and little flying owl turned out. You could almost separate this into three different paintings and have very different stories.

Was it hard to not want to push it further?
Yes. I thought about finishing the deer on the left or covering the ink lines on the center deer but ultimately I thought it seemed fresh and left it alone.

Til next time,

Kellie
