Rain Art

I think I've done it! I think I've perfected my rain painting. It's anything but boring and it has the perfect amount of chaos and drips.

 

I made this for my cousin Kacey. She's pregnant with her second child. The budget in my house doesn't have much wiggle room for baby shower gifts, but I already had a canvas and paint in my house. She had expressed an interest in one of these with two kids once her second was born. I think this was a great substitute for a baby gift.

 

I had so much fun making this one! And I love tweaking the silhouettes I find online to look like my friends and family. With this one, it took quite a bit of altering. I got lucky with little Miss Mayah. Just had to change her hair and make her taller. Kacey needed to be taller, longer dress, and shorter hair. Na-Na took the most work. His hair needed to be changed, head tilted more, change of clothes, added and arm, and a hand. The silhouette of a man I found was wearing a suit, holding a martini at his side and a hand in his pocket. I made Jerad stand in front of me in this position so I could draw a realistic arm holding an umbrella.

 

It was still amazing to make. I want to make some more.
