DESCRIPTION

This is a one-of-a-kind, original animal artwork, hand-drawn in my home studio using Neo Colour II water-soluble wax pastels — a professional artist medium that blends the richness of pastel with the fluidity of watercolor.

This small collection explores playful animal characters enjoying simple spa and bath moments — turtles soaking, frogs relaxing, penguins splashing, and ducks enjoying bath time. The subjects are lighthearted and whimsical, bringing a sense of humor and charm to everyday spaces like bathrooms, powder rooms, and playful interiors.

Unlike my oil pastel pieces, these works are intentionally more relaxed, free-flowing, and expressive. Water is used to soften and activate the pigment, allowing colors to bloom, drift, and blend naturally across the surface. The result is artwork that feels loose, spontaneous, and painterly while still highlighting the personality of each animal.

These pieces are created quickly and intuitively, embracing movement, imperfection, and spontaneity. They carry the same warmth and approachability as my pastel work, but with a softer, more playful presence that adds character and joy to a space.

Remember:

No two pieces are ever repeated.
This is not a print — it is an original, handmade work of art.

ABOUT THE MEDIUM

Neo Colour II pastels are a water-activated wax pastel, meaning they offer:

The bold color strength of pastel

The soft washes and flow of watercolor

A matte, painterly surface with subtle texture

This medium allows me to explore animals and playful scenes in a more expressive way, focusing less on precise detail and more on personality, color harmony, and movement.
