Laura West Watercolors

One of my childhood friends is SO CLOSE to publishing her first children's book. Only a few more preorder pledges needed!

For the first time my two creative outlets have come together: I've uploaded some of my original artwork to spoonflower to print my own fabric ♡

Squee! The sample for my fabric from spoonflower arrived, and it's lovely! This is the first time I've turned my own artwork into fabric.

Rush order for Christmas :)

Finished this beautiful family in time for Christmas (I was beginning to worry after seriously underestimating how much baby #3 cuts into my creative time)

WIP: pulling eight faces from seven photos to make a trigenerational portrait. Hoping to finish in the next day or two as this needs to get shipped out in time for Christmas.

Upcoming Father's Day gift commissioned by a friend--once again I got to practice combining separate photos into a single composition :). The deadline for this one has been to get it done before I go into labor (only one week from due date now!)

Isn't he darling?!

Work in progress: taking a short break from my current commission to work on this Mother's Day gift. The problem with gifts for my own family is they always get put on the bottom of the to-do list.

One of my all time favorite portraits. I did this one a few years ago, but it's worth re-sharing. This little Jedi is being raised in the Force ;)

Finished! First time I've combined three separate pictures into a single portrait :)
