"The Swirly Girly Pitcher" by Victoria



Victoria made this glorious picture of a pitcher with fruit, and it looks great in my new sitting room so I went and bought a frame for it. The frames were limited so I opted for the no mat look, and a frame with swirls to match the details of the painting. She used a technique that is new to me, and I really want to try it out sometime. It is chalk dipped in gesso, and has a lovely texture to it. I love it!

Great painting Victoria. I just saw this little clip on an elephant painting and thought you'd enjoy it. Wow! Talk about a definite line. (I think he'd be a little hard on brushes...)
