Description
This one is watercolour, 18" by 24". I finished it this morning.
I'm afraid the paper curled a bit, making the pole of the right look a little "off", but I'll post a better image on Monday.

Thanks! ^^ I think it turned out okay. It's a real whopper, so it takes up a lot of space. I hope it doesn't last long.

Thanks! This one's a real whopper - I don't usually go very large or colourful, but I needed something eye-catching for the spring shows.

Yeah, that's what Pepper says, too. It's discouraging when people come to the gallery looking for "larger" work and I don't ahve much to choose from. I think subconsciously, I try to paint small to keep them affordable.

yup.. sometimes it is true.. but well.. in those cases they should ask for a larger piece (commission)
since if u start doing all large, u wont sell so many.. i think that

You're right. When people don't see aht they want, I usually say, "Of course I can paint in any style or size you'd like." Sometimes that works.

Aw, thanks! I decided to have the frame shop frame this one professionally, since it's such a whopper - the only frames I have lying around are pretty old and beat-up.

I bet it looks great with the frame! Carousels are just the best.

I think it will, how could it not?! It probably is ten times better in person, which is truly impressive!

Thank you very much! This one took quite a while, but I'm pretty happy with it - it's a larger work, so I'm having it framed rather than frame it myself...

Sweet! I thought it was actually a photograph when i saw the thumbnail, lol! Then only did i realize this was painted when looked at the larger size... Great work!

Thank you very much! ^^ I wanted to do something large and colourful, and when one of my students brought me the reference photo, it just seemed perfect.

Love the bright colours - the details - the busy general outlook of it
looks festive - like summer time ; D

Thank you so much! I'll probably get around to framing this one today - I needed something big and colourful to draw the crowds at the spring shows.

Beautiful. My great uncle use to own a carousel, it was so difficult to pick out which animal to ride on.

Thank you so much! ^^ I think this particular one only has horses, but I kind of like the ones that have bears and tigers, too. My Saturday student, Stella, was kind enough to bring me the reference - maybe I should ask about other animals and try another one later on.

An easy problem to fix - I'll just take another shot after it's matted.
