The Woodland Wonders Collection was inspired by wanting to branch out and try some new techniques. These cute little animals were painted in a wet-on-wet painting technique, where paint is applied directly on the canvas with no pencil sketch first. Each original design was painted with oil paint on a canvas. A neutral color scheme was chosen to go with a variety of home decor styles, and be the perfect color pallet for the colder fall and winter months.

I wanted to paint something fun and joyful that would elevate my mood to paint and to see hanging in my home. I was inspired on an evening walk to paint the baby bunny, and the inspiration for a series of woodland babies soon followed.

Each animal has it's own little story (included in a digital download after you purchase). Each piece is titled after a feeling or emotion that the animal represents. I personally want the artwork in my home to speak to me and be an extension of my self expression. I chose to surround myself with artwork that is not only beautiful but has a meaningful message as well.

I hope these baby woodland animals also inspire you to relax, have some fun, and express yourself through the artwork you choose to have in your space.
