Holly Hobbie Classic


So here at my place of employment, American Greetings Properties, we often get to do specialty artwork for specific purposes. This is a piece I did of Holly Hobbie Classic, one of our oldest properties. I was originally supposed to do this piece in oils but with the short deadline I had to fall back and paint it digitally. There is a part of me that will never truly love this piece because it was always intended to be traditional but I think the outcome was pretty good and it gave me much needed practice with Painter. Anyways I hope you guys like it, and as always drop a line if you digs.

At first glance I believed it was traditional. The piece came out great and the color choices work very well with the mood. Great job.

That piece looks great, and I agree.. the choice in color reads like it's done traditionally. Nice :)
