Im not in best terms with real snails but OMG, your painting makes them look so cute! I love the texture contrast you did between the purple part of the snail body and the shell. It's so detailed! Very very well done mum. You never fail to impress me. X

Thanks for watching it, Zhianne, I know how you hate molluscs! I used salt to create the texture, it was quite easy. 💗💗

Very beautiful, I love your choice of colours ❤️ thank you for sharing Kari 😊

[@karipaints6259]

Thank you for watching, Maria, I did enjoy painting this little snail! 💗💗

[@Paperlover123]

At first the shell started looking like croissant and I wanted to eat it! lol. This was so amazing to watch! Thanks for showing!

[@karipaints6259]

LOL, thanks Julie, heh, I see what you mean about the croissant! Thanks for watching! 💗💗

[@karipaints6259]

Thanks Tracey, I have made a sticker of the snail, but yes, I intend to do something with the whole painting, prints and cards is a great idea! 💗💗

[@karipaints6259]

Thank you, yes, he is rather cute (not what I say when they have eaten all my veggies in the garden, though)! 💗🤣

[@fuzzydragons]

yeah the air turns blue when one of us wakes up and sees the damage lol

[@beccasart1]

You seem to block in light and work to the darks. You have such nice control of your edges!

[@karipaints6259]

Thanks Becca, I think I should have gone in with stronger shadows at the start. 😀❤
