Miss Molly

December is a busy month for us all.
There's preparations and present shopping for Christmas, extra work to be done before we're off for the holiday. For we artists too, I bet there are lots of paintings you can't show or hint at, because they are presents.

This painting is a present too. I have shown it to Nicola, in case there was anything she wanted changed because it wasn't sitting right, before I sent it to the other end of the country! Fortunately for me, she loved it.. so I can show it to you . For Nic its good too,  she'll be able to have it framed for Christmas :)

And yes, sometimes it is good to add those darks first cause we just cannot wait! It is such fun. Your little puppy is smashing by the way. Nice and bright for the holidays. Keep up the great work.
