Conte du Renard
Conte du Renard is completed and dressed in a beautiful custom made frame. The painting is 5x5 inches and the framed size is 13x13 inches. This one would make a perfect gift, ready to pull out of the box and hang. Thanks to Domenico at http://www.flickr.com/photos/dominiqs/ for the reference photo. Monsieur Renard is painted mainly with transparent watercolor with touches of gouache and colored pencil and then varnished. As a special bonus I am including free shipping in the United States.

He is fantastic! Great job. How long have you been mounting your watercolors? What do you mount them to?
This is gorgeous. The frame is perfect for it. Like Krista, I would love to hear about your technique for varnishing and mounting your watercolors to canvas.
Thanks Krista & Christiane. This is a new process for me and this is what I am doing. I mount 300lb watercolor paper to aquabord (previously called claybord textured)using Golden Soft Gel. I am sure that any coated or sealed masonite would work but I already had the aquabord and used it. Then I painted my painting as normal. Once complete I sealed with Claybord Fixative Spray and then varnished with Golden Satin Varnish. Hopefully that makes sense but will be glad to answer any questions that I can about the process.
This is a beautiful painting and you framed it beautifully too.
Thank you so much Nancy.

Thank you for the support and encouragement BJ!
Such a lovely fox!!! It was fun watching the wips and now we see it framed! I am sure it will be a wonderful addition to someone's art collection. How wonderful that you slipped some cps into the piece. :-)
Thanks Teresa! It was really fun to use watercolor and add cps and I am starting my second piece in my Magnificent Petit Series.
