Making Cards and Making Friends

I made this card for a young woman who goes by Mangosteenskin on Monday Artday ATCs.  I love her watercolor illustrations so I asked her for a trade.  She’s from Malasyia, so she asked if I would like a portrait card of a girl wearing a Sabahan costume.  That sounded great for me and I agreed to do this portrait card for her.  It was quite a challenge to do a double portrait on a 2.5″ x 3.5″ card, but it was fun to do.   Check out Mango’s card.  It’s charming.  I can’t wait for it to arrive in the mail.

Thanks everyone for checking out my leaf painting and leaving me such great comments.  I’ll be posting more watercolor exercises soon.
