Baby's Nursery Sign

It all starts with the perfect little baby.
I do a lot of sketches and planning.
Each of these animals has a special meaning  for Whitman, including the family dog, Coco.
 I then transfer the sketches by graphite paper
to a board I have sanded and painted.


I use acrylic paints for the illustrations and lettering.
The final painting is varnished with several coats of acrylic varnish, completed with hangers and ribbon, and mailed off to hang in Whitman's nursery.
