Think Pink!

Think pink, if you want that quelque chose!

I tried something different and painted the images for today’s post in gouache, rather than presenting them as a digital collage like I usually would. I was more successful with some of the illustrations than others, (that shirt is the woooooorst!) but it was good practice. I feel confident in my ability to draw, so it’s the painting that I’m trying to improve.

Anyway. Think pink! Think pink, and the world is rosy-red!

  • Very nice!!

  • These are SO charming.

  • I love your painting. Would love to see a photo of your art table filled with paints too.

  • What color pink is that on the wall in the picture below?!

  • This is really wonderful. You are very talented. I realized after seeing this that my surprising attraction to pink several years ago emanated from seeing your success with pink in your décor. It never seemed babyish or too little girls room. Always sophisticated and modern.

    I LOVE this! Can’t wait to see more of your work.
    Would love to see a bit of your process as well- Watercolors are so foreign to me.

  • I love the bed! It is fantastic! You are super talented! And well who doesn’t love pink?! ;)

  • Cute, Nicole! I wanted to note that, if you upload images of artwork as a png instead of as a jpg, the colors and resolution might show a bit nicer on the web. A graphic designer recently taught me this; and I thought it might be worth noting.

    Cheers! :)

  • Ridiculously adorable. Thanks for challenging yourself and sharing your journey with us!

  • Nice work! I especially love the glasses and the bed. I’m loving this so much more than the digital!

  • I like the painted version. And I love pink, so…

  • You painted those things? They really look professional. Better than the old Daily Candy.

    This is so very pretty, and I was actually disappointed the actual tunic wasn’t as lovely as yours.
