It never ceases to amaze me what artists go through constantly in their minds.

Take this ballerina I painted in less then ten hours or so... I didn't keep track just know that I drew it, transferred it to watercolor paper, did the back ground first then in one evening I painted it all and inked the outlines.

I painted this for my niece for her sixth birthday after asking her parents what she was into. Well she is into ballerinas alright, but Angelina ballerina, a bear! Well this is what came out when I went to work.

My niece told her mom to hang it up next to her bed! I guess she likes it? :)

I hope to do more like this in different colors to make a set of ballerinas.
