This week of blogging seems to be turning into a review of last week, lol. Monday I talked about Saturday, Tuesday I blogged about Sunday, and today, its about Friday. I am finding I have lots of "bare" spots on the walls of my house. And I am keeping them like that on purpose. I don't want to put stuff up just for the sake of putting it up.
I want to wait and hang things I really love. (I know if I hang something I won't take it down!) Friday, I decided to do a quick painting for a spot in my room. I bought a large canvas a while back and it was perfect for this spot. It is about 8 x24in.
I blended lots of shades of blue for the background, then made petals from the pages of an old book. I watercolored each petal, then Mod Podged them. I think it turned out rather sweet. It took less then an hour to make and it is a wonderful pop of teal on my wall. I am still getting used to seeing it hang there, though. Hmmm... I wonder if there is another spot I should hang it?

I get depressed sometimes reading your blog, you are so talented! I lack diversity, I love that painting.
I think it is a good place and a perfect size for that wall.
i think it's a great spot for your beautiful creation! lisa d., portland, oregon
Your creativity knows no bounds! I'm so glad you're keeping us busy with other "eye candy" while your book is waiting to be finished. I love this painting. SOOO cute!
All of your photos just make me smile, you know? You have an eye for everything beautiful.
