This is the first animal I painted for our first grandchild, Michaela. It was the beginning of my Animal Alphabet book project. 26 letters, 26 pages, 26 paintings in watercolor. Maybe I shouldn't have promised a unique book for each child.
Michaela and Jack have received their books, and I am working on Carrie's. She is old enough to ask me which letter/animal I am currently painting. When the book is done, I will print copies on heavy paper and present Carrie with her own personal first edition.
We now have two more granddaughters after Carrie. I'll be busy for awhile.
