Maya - Finished Painting

I am so pleased with how this little painting turned out! So soft and somehow innocent.
Sweet Maya, the girl who loves butterflies (she's a little like me in that respect).  And butterflies love her. Seeing them always makes her happy, lifts her spirit, gives her wings!
She'll grow up to be a strong, kind and loving woman!
Maya
Acrylic painting on 6 x 8 inch canvas board
SOLD! Thank you so much!! 

Tomorrow, I'll have a little mix of things for you ~ some of it food-related, which is always good in my opinion. In the meantime, be sure to enter my giveaway if you haven't done so already. 

Wishing you a beautiful day!!

    A very beautiful painting indeed, Silke! Is Maya a real girl whose portrait you painted?

      Liebe Elisabeth,

      Ja, hier gibt es ueberwiegend Maya als Vornamen. Und natuerlich bin ich mit der Biene Maja gross geworden. Ich glaube, das Lied von der Serie kann ich immernoch singen...

      Liebe Sonnengruesse!! Silke

    OOOOOH, okay, before I forget, I love your pretty new avatar!

    Oh, Silke. Your paintings! Your women are so beautiful! You make my jaw drop in awe every time I see your new works. And I'm soooooo envious that you and Daniel got to enjoy the splendor of the cherry trees! How GORGEOUS!

    Happy Spring! Hugs to you. xoxo

    Congrats on the sale, Silke! This is a very lovely piece. Maya has such a impish, girlish quality. And I like those little butterflies hovering around her.
