Brewers!

It was so fun to get to know this 3rd grade Brewers fan.  He is such a sweet boy, and was great company!  I'm loving the Brewer themed painting as well.



I knew he wanted the mitt, the emblem, and some bats in his image, so that was all sketched in and ready for him to paint.   We started with a solid background, protecting the other parts of the painting.


 Here "N" is enjoying the tape removal process.  Then we worked on the bats, and discussed how to use the brush to imitate a wood pattern.




Next up was the mitts, where we had the discovery that they form an M and a B.  New knowledge for both of us!  
I gave "N" the choice if he would like me to outline areas for him to fill in, and he took it, so while he outlined in yellow, I outlined in blue for him to fill in.
He then moved to the wheat and lettering on the emblem.
Filling in the baseball was so fun because he could really start to see the emblem coming together!  




 Session 2:  Today I had completed the blue outlines and gold ones for him to fill in.  It was a quick wrap up session.  


Working from top to bottom.We were chatting away, and I noticed his adorable painting stance and had to snap a picture!  So cute!




 Final details around the wheat!





 AND...Complete!


I had a blast with this guy!  Have a great school year "N", and I bet there is a perfect spot for your painting at home!
