I understand the angst of making a mess of something you are working on, but I am so glad you were brave and added the flowers, they are like the icing on the cake. Perfectly yummy!

I have all of my oil paints packaged to give away. Now I am going to keep them. I didn't realize I could use them with acrylics. I am really inspired to try it. I have been worried about putting some of my pieces up for sale because of the scrapbook paper. I am going to check on the copyrights. Finally, I have been thinking about how to tell a story with my paintings and have been feeling stuck. I am going to look through my old photographs and see if I can create a scene with them. Anyway, you have inspired me! Thank you. Also, I really love this painting. I think it reminds me of my grandmother.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06962091404264725580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-510428020824549223.post-46937367320082157062014-03-12T12:00:06.167-05:002014-03-12T12:00:06.167-05:00Congrats on your anniversary.

Mostly the combination of all this process is what makes the painting and your eye of course.
