Meilyn Day 29 of the 30 day challenge

6" x 6"  watercolor    $70.00

When this little cutie came to live at 11 months of age,  from China, with our son and his wife, we had no idea of her potential.  Meilyn's greatest desire and all her efforts go into being a professional ballet dancer. She works many grueling hours a day perfecting that goal.  She is home schooled  and taking honors classes, and is also a joyful, grounded young woman every minute of every day.  Another granddaughter that is completely bathed in our love. 

"Little Punkins"

11" x 14"  watercolor unfinished 

I am creating this portrait of my niece's new daughter for a demo I will be doing at the Pike's Peak Watercolor Society metting on May 16, at the Cottonwood Center for the Arts in Colorado Springs, CO.  My niece, who is also my namesake has four natural children and 2 beautiful adopted children.  She takes the most wonderful photos, and I am taking advantage of it.  They had gone to the pumpkin farm in the bright sunshine, and everything just glowed.  I am so happy for her and for the children.
