MY PEEPS



I finally got off the sofa and painted a couple of Easter Peeps cards.  


I didn't put popcorn salt on these - just let the granulation of the pigments work - but they don't have as much of a sugared look.


I will probably do a couple more before Easter rolls around...if I am going to mail this out this year.  




These are quick, easy, and fun.  Not sure why I kept procrastinating about doing them.


I have done these in the past, but if you want to see some really creative and fun peeps paintings, go to the blogs of
Chris Beck and Pablo Villacana Lara 
and type in peeps in the upper left search feature of their blogs.

Once again, I love the simplicity you do so well. I tend to work things over too much whereas you know when to stop. Lovely.

Thanks, Delores, hope you enjoy them all :)

Thanks, Sadami - you are too sweet!! ha ha

Elizabeth, thanks so much for that compliment. As you know, less is more in watercolor and I'm glad you think I accomplished that with these little peeps.

Love the peeps. Spring is here once Rhonda starts painting peeps. :)

Yes, Carol, spring is here. I imagine in NC there are trees budding and birds singing and rain. Hope you are adjusting more to your new home! Happy spring!
