Happy Pattern in Blue (Digital "Print")

I have been exploring my new update to Painter 12, and did a little more today. I tried out the pattern pen, using the "Happy to Draw" pattern that I made yesterday. The controls are a little different and are in different places, but I am happy because the pattern pen in Painter 11 stopped working a few months ago. I made a couple of images with the pattern pen for practice to get the hang of it. I started to relax and have fun, and that's when I made this image. I used a blue canvas and the pattern pen was loaded with digital pastel in fuschia. I also did a little posterizing to get this image, and a little bit of cropping in iPhoto as well.
