Water-color dial…

My wife has been teaching herself to paint the last couple of years. The last six months, she became obsessed with clouds in water color. It’s all she works on. Practicing, practicing. Today I was looking at a blank dial and thought, hmm? I put a coat of light primer on it and filled the engravings with crayon then dropped it on her desk with a note asking for clouds.

Now the kids are all clamoring for a build with one of mom’s dials!

I really love this. And love that it’s a family affair. Congrats on the dial, the wife and the kids!

Looks great, soon she'll be wearing a watch you built for her with dial art.

Awesome dial, she is a true artist! The cloud in the middle of the dial makes me think of Michelangelo.
