Peggy Schenkels - Kind Eyes
This is a picture of my husband and our German Shepherd "Jenny", who passed away a little over 2 years now. We still miss her every day. My husband and Jenny had a special bond, which I think is truly visible in this picture.
Though I wasn't particularly fond of this month's painting, I did like the criteria and I do love the result of my LO, which goes to show you don't have to be a huge fan of a painting to draw inspiration from it.
I managed to cover all of the criteria ...
Family member and pet: check
Brown and orange shades: check ... I wouldn't have thought of adding these shades to this picture myself, but I do like this combination, and I was so excited to find this orangy cloud paper ... Just perfect!
Tropical plant: check ... Well, I don't think it's a tropical plant really, but pink leaves do look a bit tropical, no??? LOL. I cut out the leaves from a piece of fabric and hand stitched it to the page ... Love the result of fabric on a LO, I will have to do this more often.
I hope you like it Shazz.
Love Xxx Peggy
