A garden meeting

This latest commision was actually done as a portrait for a family 's first grandson. They are decorating the nursery with Beatrix Potter wall paper and wondered if I could pick a similair idea and match son of Miss Potter's color schemes. I started to wonder what it would be like to be a small child waiting outside when all of a sudden Peter Rabbit pops in for a visit! I imagine the mother off somewhere completley unaware of what she is missing.

Beatrix Potter Montage

One of the things I was taught at school was to practice my art by painting pieces done by my favorite artists. I thought I would do a Beatrix Potter piece as a tribute. One of my absolute favorites!
