...nice-very nice work from both of you girls.....

Not quite half way"

I recognize the colours from Starry Night by Van Gogh, but is that a Dr. Who 'Tardis'? (that thing that looks like a police call box?)
Very nice work!

 

[AnnaMarie]

Yes it is Neesy. I assume you don't watch Dr. Who?

In season Five, Matt's doctor took Amy to meet VanGogh.

Love those.

Is there a "how to" to make those tiny books? I wanted to make one with a magnet inside to use as a needle minder.

If you do a search for " how to make miniature books" there are many tutorials.You can then tweek your own process to suit just how detailed you want to get.Pinterest is also a good source.BUT BE WARNED! Once you start looking at miniature things you might get sucked into a whole new world!

Then I made four different 'studies' of the painting, first drawing just the lines in the painting that stood out to me:

Next, the shapes:

Then a detailed shaded drawing:

Last, a colored-pencil rendition of the painting:

I framed them all in a vertical row:
