Moomin Mama

Description

Watercolor on 300 gsm paper.

Gave this to a friend for her birthday, and didn't have time to scan or take a decent photo, so this is from my cellphone. Hope it works anyway!

The quote (loosely translated) says: "I know that anything can happen at anytime. That is why I am so calm."

I tried to give the painting a happy blissful feeling of a sunny day in Moomin Valley, and I actually really like how it came out, even though it could probably have been better executed technically. I'm also trying to learn how to use cold and warm colors to give a feeling of different distances in the painting.

Celebrating Tove's 100th birthday... Would you mind terribly if I hung this up at the Library, along with some of her other marvelous quotes? My display could really need some lovely colour. :3
