Napping Fawn

“The thing that is really hard, and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself.”
– Anna Quindlen



Napping Fawn
4″ x 6″ Watercolor Postcard

This sweet little fawn is a reference by EllZee at WetCanvas.  It’s a quickie that I did in 15 minutes, while waiting for dinner to come out of the oven.  The spots are gouache.

I have three 24″ x 48″ gallery wrapped canvases sitting in my lobby right now.  They arrived from Jerry’s Artarama on Monday.  Wow!  They are Intimidating with a capital I! I received some 6″ x 12″ canvases on Tuesday and they didn’t scare me a bit!  :D

About Anna Quindlen

Anna Quindlen was only the third woman to become an Op-Ed writer for the New York Times. She was born in 1952 near Philadelphia. As a columnist, she blended the personal with the political, drawing parallels between the two. She left the Times to write fiction. Her novel, One True Thing, became a film starring Meryl Streep. She is the first writer with books on the fiction, nonfiction, and self-help New York Times bestseller lists. She lives with her husband and children in New York.
