In the morning I took some pics of snail in my backyard and so I decided to paint a snail portrait in my illustrative style ^_^
The snails intrigued me, because they ha theyr "home" (the shell) always with them. The snail (in Italian is chiocciola) has a shell large enough for the animal and they love the fresh water, so it's simple to watch them during the rainy days.
It's an oil painting on paper and you can see some steps of the "work in progress" in the following pics:
I hope you love it ^_^
See ya soon
Silvia
