I don’t take commissions for paintings so what you see is what you get with me as far as available art goes. But a couple of weeks ago my son Ethan came by the studio, picked up a board and said ‘I want you to paint me something on this board similar to that one’ pointing to a Winter scene hanging in my studio. Below is that particular painting.
"Mystical Snowy Night in the Mountains", acrylic on board, 36"x48" framed, 2022

So for his then upcoming 5th birthday, I set out to work on his
‘commission’
Note, this is only something I'd do for one of my kids, as mentioned above, I don't do commissioned paintings. See currently available art here: https://www.kasiapolkowskashop.com/product-category/paintings-drawings/

October has been pretty cosmic for sure! Our little family of 4 dressed the part for a better part of October, including in the above photo for Pagosa Springs Halloween in the Park on the 29th of October.

Next you can see some of the lines being added to the trees and the build up layers for the milkyway.
