Gardening With Mom

Whimsical children's book illustration showing a mother and daughter planting seeds in the ground, surrounded by giant flowers. 2 fairies watch them, and a gnome with a trowel in his hand watches too.

May always makes me feel like painting flowers. This is a personal piece that satisfied that need! I painted the flowers larger than life so that I could have fun with the shapes and patterns. Acrylic gouache and colored pencil on hot press watercolor paper.
