The Queen

Here is Hedgehog and two of his mechanical animal friends.  He has fallen in behind the Queen, who is the older sister of his friend Arabella.   When I was painting the girl I was thinking that she was missing something.  I was also thinking of what to do for the blog challenge for the Etsy Melange team.  The challenge is to create a mixed media piece that has to do with the word "royalty".  It is open to everyone!  Suddenly I realized that what the girl was missing was her crown.  Now the Queen has her crown, and I have my entry for the Melange team challenge!  Click yourself over to the Melange blog to see some great mixed media art!

It's been really fun watching your work evolve. I love this new look you've got going on! It's really easy to see the narrative even before you read your statement. Well done!

Love this painting! You are a very talented artist! My favorite parts in the piece are the cutout birds created with text paper...always love to see text as a design element!
