Birthday Card Made

I made a card for my Aunt Bonnie. This shows the progression, but I may have overdone the green shadowing. I also enclosed a small mixed media piece made from hand painted wallpaper that has been buried and retrieved.

Handmade Card

Today I drew and painted my hand with watercolors. It was for a birthday card for my sister.

More, More Birthday Cards

It's my half-sister's birthday coming up, so I quickly sketched/painted this card for her. Created with graphite and watercolor.

Greeting Card

I've always found the idea of mass-produced greeting cards distasteful. So many years ago, I started collecting recycled blank greeting cards and making my own. My sister's birthday is next week, so created this card that I drew/painted from a picture of her cat named Sasha. I think it turned out like a ghost cat!
