[Traditional Art] Potted Grace - Gift

[Traditional Art] Potted Grace - Gift

This is a gift for the woman who bought me the canvases, she requested I paint her a painting and I could do whatever I want so I painted this for her. This is the proper canvas this time, it's made for watercolors, she also bought the spray to keep the painting sealed but we can't spray it until it's cured. We'll wait a few days to play it safe. I'm gonna miss this painting, but oh well I hope she loves it!

Enjoy!

  1. oooh, i want that painting too!!! it's one of your master pieces, moko, the colours sing together beautifully and there are so many sweet details, like the butterfly and the humming bird and the vine wrapping round the pot or vase. i'm sure the lady will be happy with it.
