paint more

I painted my old yellowed french provincial a new clean white. It looks fantastic. I also took an old keepsake, but very childish framed item and turned it into something very nice that I can keep. I painted the frame white, turned the board around so the old image faced the wall, painted the back of the board to match the room it is going into’s ceiling, then flattened and dried some solomon’s seal from my garden, and painted it yellow to match the walls, and reframed it. Now I can keep the old piture, but I don’t have to show it off. And I have a perfectly coordinated piece of decor. yay!

not what I had in mind, but it is nice!

I got an easle for christmas, and some new paint. I have already done a practice painting. How exciting!

just to get a feel for it again, I did some very crappy painting this weekend. now I need to flip through some of my drawings and sketches, and pick something cool to really spend time painting.

I sanded and painted 2 of the 4 posts on my fron porch yesterday. Granted, it wasn’t very creative (they’re white) but it was theraputic.

bought some acryllics from my friend at her yardsale.

a paper list I keep at home, of “things to do”
So maybe this weekend, I’ll get around to it. I need to buy some more paint though. A lot of my Acryllics Solidified.
