a triangle lives here

painting iii

Here is my finished painting from the other month: a crawling Snapdragon! I had to commemorate her most adorable lurching goblincrawl, and decided to give painting another go at the same time. I had a lot of fun! I constantly feel like I'm Missing Something and am not totally happy with balancing pigment and water in the brush[1] but the end result is good and I enjoyed doing it. Trying things is good! Making things is good! babies is good!

A watercolor and ink illustration of a crawling baby. Her left knee is firmly planted while her right leg is extended with the foot flat on the floor. There is a soft background of pinks and purples that is broken up by a thin white halo around the infant's head
