I painted this when I was waiting for 'Newborn' to get dry. It´s quite simple, but I like it anyway. Done in watercolour.

Beautiful color and light. Reminds me a lot of Robert Vavra's photographs, though I'm not sure whether you've seen them or not. That's most definitely a compliment though. ^_^ He's brilliant.

1 Karin Holmström replies: "Yes, I´ve seen Vavra´s photographs and I also think they´re very good! Thank you for the compliment!"

It's a cute picture, but I know of a painting that looks oddly a lot like this one... Does "andelusian" ring a bell? Just curious...

:-) Karin Holmström replies: "No, I haven´t ever seen a painting that looks like this one, but I wouldn´t be surprised if there is one. However, this is not a copy."

This is simply wonderful! I love the lighting and how you're looking at it from the shadows. And great to see yet another finn in here ^_^ *runs off to get her Finland- flag and Kalevala-cap*

1 Karin Holmström replies: "Paljon kiitoksia!! Thanks for ALL of your nice comments! They were many and detailed, which is nice for a change; usually I got lots of "wows" and such. I´m happy that you liked so many of my pictures and that you also had one negative thing to say; I hadn´t noticed that the legs of the "star-pegasus" looked strange, so thanks for telling me. ~Karin~"

This is gorgeous. You have a really wonderful skill with watercolour and lighting. Did you use a model?

1 Karin Holmström replies: "I had a photo as reference, but it was quite difficult to use, because it was too small. Anyway, thanks for this one and all of your other comments!"
