Showcased below are snapshot images taken during the creative process
for this digitally painted fine art piece. Notice how the original design
is refined with new ideas to create the final product.
Snapshot #1
Starting this last painting in the Teddy Daisy series, I was able to quickly
sketch a rough version of the body and begin shading it in right away.
Reversing the image sometimes gives me a better idea of
the design. The gift box and ribbon have just been added in.

Snapshot #3
The gift box is now behind the teddy, I've decided to give a more vague
impression of whether teddy is opening or wrapping his present, leaving
this for the viewer to decide instead. A big bow is now prominent in the picture as well.
Snapshot #4
The bow has dropped down onto the floor, and the ribbon
has wound its way around our teddy's entire body. And with these final touches
to our endearing friend, the painting is complete!
