Tiny and Precious
5 x 7 watercolor
A new baby is like the beginning of all things-wonder, hope, a dream of possibilities.

There's just something special about a brand new baby. Something quiet but wonderful that you feel just by being near them. Lately I find myself (lately? Okay, if lately means the last ten years, then lately it is.) inexplicably drawn to them.
And their tiny and precious little feet.
Oh, and yesterday I went out looking for a landscape to inspire me, then I spent some time researching some of my favorite landscape artists for more inspiration.
And I'm feeling verrrry excited about this.
This could be a whole lot of fun.
great concept Crystal. And well done.
ReplyDeletewill be interesting to see your landscape work
So beautiful....and aren't they the cutest things Crystal......I have lots of piccies of these saved ready to do.Someday :D
ReplyDeleteFeet are very interesting! This is a lovely painting of baby's foot :) xx
ReplyDeletePrecious one, Crystal. Looking forward to your landscape painting, too.
ReplyDeleteBrand new babies are the best! When our kids were tiny, my husband and I would argue over who got to hold the baby. Love the little foot. I want to reach out and touch it.
ReplyDeleteBabies' feet are precious! Makes you want to nibble their little toes! This is a beautiful painting, Crystal...as always.
ReplyDeleteYour portrait work is incredible Crystal, but I can't wait to a landscape from you!
ReplyDeleteWho can resist some baby toes:) Beautiful painting, would make such a great baby gift! So glad that you are finding great inspiration in your landscape project. You sound like me I'm a big time researcher:)
ReplyDeletewonderful companion for your painting "First Touch" :) Totally want to kiss that little foot -- brings back so many memories!!!!
ReplyDeleteTiny and precious!! The title says it all. Beautiful painting Crystal.!
ReplyDeleteThis painting is so special! You are right - there is something very special about a tiny foot!
ReplyDeleteNow, come on Crystal - admit it! You are broody! Could there be more tiny feet in the Cook household any time soon?
Love the composition here Crystal. You always find a way to make each painting special and compelling.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful painting! Who was your model that has such cute and beautiful feet!?!
ReplyDeleteYesterday in church, a little baby kept reaching over and pulling on my sleeve. I loved it, even though her mom was embarrassed. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking that foot must have been a real challenge! Maybe I'm just projecting...lol Who is your favourite landscape artist? I'm curious. And I cannot WAIT to see your landscape!!
