I'm here with a no-line watercolor of one of the sweetest images I've ever seen in my LIFE from the new Impression Obsession winter release, which you can see here.
I had such a wonderful, peaceful time painting this sweet image - and even though I did her ears darker, I colored her to look like my beloved childhood pet - a golden retreiver names Tzu Hsi. She was not the brightest dog on the planet, but I'm quite certain she was the sweetest.
I stamped her first in Fadeout Ink on this watercolor paper, and then painted her with Daniel Smith Watercolors. I stamped the sentiment from this set in Nocturne, matted it on Black Onyx Cardstock and put it on a Desert Storm card base. Don't you love her? MORE?

Head over to the new section at IO this morning and see what they've got. Mitra is an awesome human and they have SUCH a wide range of stamps - a little something for everyone.
Loveyameanitbye.
