This art was so fun to paint – because this momma kept me cracking up! First off, she has a house full of kids making her relatable in the here and now! Don’t get me wrong, I work with a ton of new mom’s or soon-to-be. And I was there once and remember it – clearly! But it is fun to work with someone that has as many, if not more than I do!
Basically at this point, you almost get to where you are exhausted with all the choices that life has to offer – aaannnndddd you have absolutely no problems letting others decide for you. Perfect example is your child’s bedding!!! hah! I must admit, at this point in life I do give the final say …… but ultimately I lean to whatever the child wants {within reason!} So, when I got the email that basically stated ‘I hate the green in the bedding. She loves it. So I say whatever,’ I was dying to see this green! {That was not a direct quote, but something like that!}
As we all know – neons have made a comeback.
And, although we were fans of them in 8th grade, we might not have so much love for them now. BUT that doesn’t change the fact that our children are going to have the love that we felt so many years ago! {Just remember this about every trend – and you will be okay.}
So, the green is not bad. But I feel her pain about not lovin’ a color and thinking of all the pretty shades, you picked that one!? Remember, I have a daughter whose favorite color is “Golden.” And I do mean the metallic version.
Fortunately, it is my job to tone it down! And as you can tell, I found a softer tone of the neon!
These sisters share a room – sooooo, I was trying to pull all of their colors together in the art {as well as each personality!}
I was told it was a success – both girl’s loved their art {and so did their momma!}
Just to let you know …. The Wombles will be coming home as a family of 6! Their little man has been doing great and it is official – he is a Womble! Thanks to all who kept my friends in your prayers and thoughts!
And as a friendly reminder …. Don’t forget Thursday, August 2nd at 8 pm central time on Small Words facebook fan page is the when and where if you want to order the limited edition Christmas 2012 art for this year!
