I've been very inspired by all things colorful and bold... But while loving the idea of oil painting and such I by nature can't really be comfortable trying to create a Realistic piece.
So as I was visiting Elsie Flannigan's blog and then her Flickr site it hit me... I shouldn't even try to do realistic things with paint I should just stick with the cartoon-ish and whimsical things!!!Because those things flow out of me without having to learn a whole new style.
Well then I went into my Room of goodness(otherwise known as my scrapping/craftroom)LOL and I got some acrylic paints and sketched a quick drawing then got down to it...
this is what I made today.... A Big huge mess....haahaha...No no
just kidding.
Here is the real thing The picture is of me and Aaron and our 2 cats and the fictional house That we'll have some day soon.
I used just regular acrylic paints like the ones you can buy for like 60 cents a piece at craft stores. It's painted on regular canvas board.
Well I hope you like it.
Thanks for checking in
see ya
