Hello hivers, an happy Friday to you all!
Another new weekend is just around the corner and I hope we will havea couple of sunny days to enjoy the air outside. 😊
Yesterday I spent the afternoon talking about my work on art with a friend of mine who work as art therapist with a small group of young people affected by the Down syndrome. It was a very interesting experience for me! The boys and girls are working on different kind of tecniques to create artworks and they showed to me some very nice Papier-mâché sculptures. I gave them my "special" painted envelopes with a couple of different figures of mine inside and they appreciated them so much. This meeting was part of a project to have fund for their activities. Seven local artists (included me and my hubby) donated an artwork each one for a charity auction and the group will create an artwork inspired by those pieces. The auction will be in May or June with the support of the Municipality and I'm pretty sure everything will be fine. ❤️
This morning I woke up soon to work on a new artwork during the first, quiet hours of the day and, in the following pics, you can see the final result:
The subject is a little girl with a red dress and one of my usual tiny scenes about home on the hair.
It's an oil painting on 200 gsm paper in A4 size and, as usual, I took some pics while I was painting her so you can see the process too:
Soon I'll add this new artwork to my Artfinder shop (link at the bottom)!
I hope you like it!
See ya soon and stay safe,
Silvia
