#57, #58 Baseball Watercolors -Sheryl Hawkins


I painted these baseball themed watercolors last week as a baby gift, and the baseball idea was a request.  Not exactly my usual painting subjects, but fun anyway. I painted the baby's name on the baseball in the style of an autographed souvenir.

    These are really fun, Sheryl! The stitching looks so nice! I like all the shading and shadows too...

    What a great idea for paintings as a baby gift. I'm sure these will be treasured. I especially like the one with the mit -- I can fondly picture the little mits we had for our 3 boys.

    Very Nice. I can't see anything that you should do to improve.

    Thank you all! These were easy for me to get into, being a boys mom myself! Thanks for the card idea, Laure!
