New- Brazilian and Guatemalan Close-Up Matryoshka Portraits!

Brazilian and Guatemalan Close-Up Matryoshka Portraits

I enjoy learning about different cultures when I'm doing research for my matryoshka drawings. Because we have adopted a child internationally we know children from lots of different cultures which makes it even more interesting to me. Such is the case with the Guatemalan Girl Matryoshka. I have had several requests for a Brazilian Matryoshka. I've never been to Brazil but my husband Eric is a musician and we love Bossa Nova music. While researching I enjoyed seeing all the examples of traditional Bahian dress with its long full skirts. Both are such beautiful cultures.

For my full view Matryoshka prints: Bahia Brazilian Matryoshka print and Guatemalan Girl Matryoshka Print.

Guatemalan Girl Matryoshka

Introducing my newest illustration, Guatemalan Girl Matryoshka. I really enjoyed drawing her. She is full of joy! My colorful little cherub. I think she and my Peruvian Girl Matryoshka are going to get along famously! They will look so cute paired together, hanging on the wall! I'm so excited! Can you tell? Her festive colors are putting me in the mood for a party! I hope you adore her too! Shameless I know. Sorry, I can't help myself, I love sweet little children. :)
