A Small Gift For Joshua

A few months ago Kim's brother Mike and sister in law Christina welcomed a new baby boy to their family. We decided to drive to Fargo to meet the little man this past week. It was a great trip and we had a blast. I decided to paint something for Joshua to bring up with us on the trip. The painting is on a wood block(actually a large then normal wood post card). It was a great experience and I have a few more pieces of wood left to do some more work on. If you want the name of the pace I got them, just let me know, you can put post card stamps right on the wood and mail it if you so wish. I just used it as a canvas for my watercolor. I was afraid the watercolor ink would just soak in too much and run, but it did not(to my relief). Anyway, I am working on a commission piece right now and I am excited to add it to the blog soon.
