FIGURATIVE ABSTRACT PAINTING work in progress 2

I tried to resist, but a Blue Madonna seems determined to get herself painted, so I've given in. I seem to have a fixation with the image of mother and child. It goes back a long way so I shouldn't be too surprised. More progress next time.


This got me thinking about other mother and child images I've made. And I remembered this needlecraft design that was probably my first, and designed many years ago. Whadayaknow .... it's BLUE!

Cross stitch kit available from Amathusia Designs.

I remember the "Mother & Child" cross stitch kit well. I really enjoyed stitching that series - are there anymore on the horizon of the little boy older still, perhaps at school?

Nothing in the works at the moment Julie. Maybe it's time I allowed 'Sleepyhead' to grow up a little. Or perhaps he should stay forever young like Peter Pan :) Thank you for the idea though ... I'll think about it and if I get inspired you'll definitely be the first to know.
