All things girly....

Just finished framing this new painting for a little baby girl named Riley.  Girls are so easy to paint for.....pinks and greens plus a birdie and some polka dots.  I love all things girly.  There are lots of little goodies in the painting if you look closely: Flower-shaped buttons, rhinestones, butterfly buttons with hand-stitched bodies and antennae.  The mother I made this for received the painting as a gift at a baby shower.  The bedding in her nursery is white with pink, brown, green polka dots and has some stripes in the same colors.  Take a look at the Katie Bedding Collection from Pottery Barn Kids.  Every time I paint one of these little nursery paintings I realize just how much I love to make things that I hope will make others feel happy.  

Here is the final framed painting.  I used an antique white frame with a white mat floated above the backing.
