Paintbrush

Photo Details

Poster: bfinlay

My brother-in-law is an artist and a pastor and he did a watercolour of a paintbrush with the words "Paint in my life a portrait of Jesus..." underneath. A friend who lives in Madrid asked me to make a card like it that she could frame and gave me the Spanish words - I sketched the brush and then outlined it in a black fine liner before colouring with copics. The sentiment is computer generated in Papyrus font.

Yes, so gorgeously-frameable! Such talent to be able to sketch it in the first place, and your coloring is fantastic. BRAVO!

How absolutely beautiful and so worthy of framing! Your sketch is fabulous! I was so hoping it was a stamp so I could get one! Love the beautiful colors you used around your pen.
