A dear friend I spent two weeks with in the United Kingdom in 2010 has a son who's favorite "buddy" was this little bear. I took quite a few photos of this little guy with the hopes of painting a little something for Sam. Finally I'm getting around to doing something!
I chose this one because the bear is poking his head out as if to say " Hiya, Sam!!! Wanna come in and play with me?"
S&B Journal (beta)
DaVinci #20 Flat (about an inch wide).......I really like this brush!!!
#8 Round
Daniel Smith: Bt Sienna, Fr Ultramarine, Bt Umber and Cob Blue. Chose this brand for the muted old painted wood look.
Holbein: Bt Sienna as a slight glaze here and there plus Bamboo Green and touch of Marine Blue.
Dip Pen and Sepia Ink
SIDE NOTE: Because I am saving this as a gift or card idea for Sam, I used FotoSketcher to add the lined frame and some texture.
Here is the original from the journal book without the lined frame or texture that FotoSketcher can create:
