Kindred Garden

by Kelley Hensing

A gathering of furry friends~

I felt like creating something light and whimsical for this piece. I’ll be using the image for prints and post cards sold in my online shop and traveling art booth. (This piece came with me “in progress” to the last few shows, and guests enjoyed watching me work on it.)

Medium: color pencils on illustration board.

Frame: I found the frame in a vintage shop with the flower pattern on it. The texture was a little aged and rim has some marks/imperfections in places, though I touched it up where I could with paint and added gold trim.

Art measures 10 x 10 inches, with frame 15.5 x 15.5 in.
