‘Friends Series’ card by Karin Taylor

One Spring Day is a mixed media production (ink, pastel, charcoal, acrylic) on canvas textured paper. I have also used a variety of found objects, including lace and ribbons…and an especially beautiful gold paint for the wings which were underpainted first to created texture.

On of my favourite paintings, my heart and soul went into this piece…two sweet little girls in darling dresses hanging out in the garden together….what could be nicer.

One Spring Day belongs to the following groups:

Childhood, Cutest of the Cute, Mixed Media and The Two Of Us

    yes, you’re right, I did this one after a long spell in between paintings…it was a commission for a work colleague of my husbands. she has two little blonde girls…..the first commission i did for them was ‘best of friends’

    Ah, I really really like this painting! It’s so cute and naive (in a good way!) and childlike. Love the way you used all the different materials to make this; it has a really nice effect. I especially like the textures, like in their dresses.
    Great style, lovely colours… just a wonderful painting! =D

    Karin Taylorcommunity helper in reply to Ine Spee’s comment, 9 months ago

    Hi Eenuh, thank you for your great comments :D
    I just remembered that I also used lace and ribbons on the dress and flower stems too. I love your work also…and wish you every success in your dream to become a children’s book illustrator…you certainly have the talent!
    Cheers, Karin :D

    aw thanx again Penelope, you don’t know how apt your comments are for me today….both of them are perfect. As recently as last night i had to do a sort of art statement including what people usually say about my art, and you said them both, that you like the way i portray the female form, and that it makes you smile…..i couldn’t have a stronger confirmation or a lovelier response, thank you so very much!

    The sweetest painting ever Karin :) I wish i could see it in real life

  • Karin  Taylor

    Karin Taylorcommunity helper in reply to blucy’s comment, 17 days ago

    aw, thank you so much!
    the real life painting ws about 56×76cm
    and it looked special all framed up under glass with a matt…
    the greens so deep, you could just look and look right into it… there’s just something about this one, i put so much into it…many days, many hours…even though it looks simple…i wanted it to be really special as it was a commissioned piece …..i’m so happy to hear you like it :)
