Before and After by artsygang

Before and After

After being relentlessly pushed by @monikozi and @30pics4jackiesdiamond I finally got around to trying one of Monika's suggestion. The tutorial was so easy to follow and the simplicity of the project was encouraging. I am not an artist so often the drawing part slows me down but this one was something I could do without too much error. This is the result which I am pleased with. Thanks girls for the push
No need to comment on this because I am also posting just the after shot in my regular album

@grammyn gosh he's wonderful, and the details on his nose, the creases in his hat and his beard is white!!!

I'm so pleased you made time for you to do this! Now you can get down to your serious pie baking!! FAV x

@monikozi Wow! I never expected to paint ANYTHING that would make you envious Thanks bunches
@30pics4jackiesdiamond thanks for pushing me or I might not have and I am thrilled you like it
@summerfield not really but how nice of you to say!♥
@wakelys that is really nice of you Sue. I like to do shading but have much better luck with it in oils rather than watercolors. Practice more I guess?

This is fabulous! Should be framed and shown every year!

I think you did a very nice job. The subject to start with is right cute. You have done a good job with the shading.

Wonderful job!

Katy, you overestimate me (thanks) and underestimate yourself (sadly). But we we'll gett you on track, with some patience.

@randystreat I really appreciate that Kathy . i thought it was a cute subject too and that may have been why it was so fun to do.
@monikozi no, I don't think I do but your constant encouragement means a lot
