Artist's Comments

The finished version of this: [link]

Am I proud of this? You bet I am! VERY proud. I love it. I want to run round with it and show it to everyone yelling "look at this! look at this!"

Anyway, as I said before for the line art, this will be a present for a dear friend whose wife has just had a baby girl called Grace. So Matthew? If you happen to see this, don't look! Press the back button NOW! And pretend you didn't see anything until you get the final version!!!!!

The quote is from Jonathan Edwards, andthe design is meant to be very William Morris-esque in style, but with my usual slightly brighter take on colours!

Please love this piece, I do, and I'd like everyone else to as well =D

It's gorgeous! I hope your Matthew (and Grace!) appreciate it as much as I do :) The colors are very robust and alive, and you've got the style down cold. The little blue flowers are so very pretty and delicate, and the animals are just adorable. Terrific job, as always!

I loved the line art version of this, but the colored version is absolutely fantastic. So much detail and the colors are perfect.

How am I supposed to comment when I'm speechless? I'm sure that in 20 years little Grace will still have this tucked away somewhere!
:iconstarrynienna:
How could anyone not love this!! What a lucky little girl, and what a wonderful friend you are! I hope Matthew won't get divorced and marry you after seeing this. :D
:iconfoxvox:
I do love it - I can definitely see why you're SO happy with it!!! :D I even like the hyphenated "-ed" at the end - for some reason it seems to make it feel genuinely antique to me like that.

That new baby is one lucky little girl!!
