Me likey


I love this! There, I said it. I made it and I love it. Totally, unashamedly love it!

And what's even better is ... now, how can I explain it? It came from a lesson I wrote for my course. I inspired myself how to do it!

It started out like this...


 then evolved into into this


Before becoming this (with a little digital blending)

(detail)

and I even love the back where the paint soaked through! (I intensified the colour a bit using PhotoShop)


I love ART!

Sharing this for Paint Party Friday. Too excited to wait until Friday to post it.

The inner critic is trying to grab my attention. She's not too sure that I should be quite so pleased with myself. After all, it's not really done to like your own work is it? We're not supposed to think we're any good.

Hey girl, got news for you ... I'm not listening tonight!

  3. What's not to love? It IS your own work. Even working with our wonderful technology, YOU make all the choices based on your experience and talents.

  6. Don't listen to that inner critic. She's extremely boring, blathering on about the same old things day in and day out. And she's very unreliable, being wrong almost all of the time.

    I'm so glad you love this painting since it means we think alike! I love it too! It's an enchanted fairyland...I think I see the wee fairies flitting here and there spreading magical fairy dust and yummy colors.
