This painting started off as “just a woods picture”, however, in the middle of painting it I discovered that I was actually creating my sister (Heidi’s), In-laws home drive way. This was the home her husband grew up at! So cool! I am now gifting it to the family since I know it will mean more to them then anyone else. 🙂
Getting started on my murals is the hardest thing… I keep thinking what if I get started and then I am unable to finish? Or what if it looks completely awful when it is finished? And then my financial situation doesn’t help, I keep telling myself “my next paycheck I’ll go buy all the paint for it”, but of course something else comes up more important, like bills and wedding accessories.
Finally, though I put my foot down cleared my day and put my skills to practice!!! Its small about a 18×12, but it put my thoughts to ease that I can do this. I just need to make some time for myself and put some money aside!
This was my first forest painting, so overall I was very excited with the results 🙂
