AEDM (Day 9) - Gold Leaf Girl

 This girl started with a watercolor base - blues and greens splashed all around. . .
Added Stabilo pencil, black India ink and white Sharpie paint pen dots. . .
for fun I decided a bit of gold leaf would be cool. . .
 She's cranky cause of all the leaves in the backyard (well, maybe she isn't but I am!)
Bonus pic of our dog Lily in a sweater - isn't she cute?!
Check out all the amazing art this month at Creative Every Day!!

She's beautiful! You make these look so easy but I'm sure they're not.

Lily looks cute in her sweater. She's all ready to help you with all those leaves.

Lily looks so cute! I would get Maddi a sweater, but she would just find a way to eat it!

I should start by saying how much I love your painting, but your dog can't be ignored... she is just too sweet for words... love that pic... and the painting as well... of course... but that sweater is too amazing for words... wonder what my mutt would look like in one of those come winter... xx
