Toddler Two Dress….Ta-Done!



I could not resist taking a picture of these two Toddler dress girl drawings side by side.  They look pretty cute together!



Had super-major trouble with this thumb.  In the picture the child is holding sunglasses so her thumb is curving around a shape.  To draw in the object would’ve just confused everyone (mostly me) so I opted to curve in her thumb to her chest.  Not pleased with my rendition!



Ok, so….I cheated!  Things were going way...too…slow with the watercolor pencils so I had to finish things up (details in the feet, hand and clavicle) with regular colored pencils.  I needed the control and consistency.

The far left is the original picture from KK Childrens Designs….then my color-replacement….then my drawing.  If I could do it over again….I’d probably still change the dress to red…but leave the leggings white.  White is fun to work with, who’d have thought?

  2. I think your paintings are amazing. I can't draw so I'm even more amazed that someone can take paint and make something look so real.

    Thanks for sharing it with us!
