Snowlady on a Sled

Now that I am back in the studio here is my latest hot of the paintbrush:







My Etsy description reads:

Who says it not time for winter decorations? This snowlady is sure to warm your heart year round with her primitive design and happy salutaion.

Handpainted in washes and with drybrushing techniques, this snow lady is painted directly on a decorative sled that measures approximately 23 inches long, 4 inches wide and about 1 and 3/4 inches high (sled rails).

The entire item has been stressed and distressed to lend an antique feel. It has been covered in 3 layers of matte sealer for protection. It may be cleaned with a damp cloth or dusting spray. If you like I can add your family name in the snow just under the "Warm Winter Wishes" greeting at no additional charge.

I have two more items that are ready to be posted and another that is being painted as I get the time. Hopefully I'll have those up soon.
