Baa-Baa, Yellow Swirly Sheep

Today's post features three little works of art featuring Baa-Baa, Hoot-Hoot and Boris.  (I'll leave it up to you to work out who is who.)


They are the results of a special commission I received this week to create some artwork for a very loved and adored little boy's bedroom wall.  As he is only just over a week old, I think I can safely say he is my youngest fan! ;-)


I used acrylic paint to create them and made a conscious choice to use a combination of bold colours and simple lines in order to produce three happy animal critters which hopefully will bring a smile to his face when he is a little older.   This was a very interesting experience as it was a quite a different style of painting from what I've tried before.  I am quite happy with the results.




I hope you like them, Olly!


Lots of Love, Aunty Kate
XOXOXO

  1. omg they are SO cute!! I particularly like the sheep one as I'm a spinner and love anything sheepy. I also love the owl because I developed an owl addiction this year. I have no idea how or why, I just fell in love with owls...... And the cow is just plain cute. Great work! xx
