Giddy

I was certainly not going to go here with this painting. ...but it was silly fun!  You know I am surrounded by silly girls everywhere! I am really not interested in making cutsie little scenes like this.  But man, they are kinda fun to paint.  I know that this art thing takes lots and lots of learning and practicing to find you, to have skillz...hence the reason I am here.  So I will share my mediocre and my successes, and possibly my failures too.


This is actually that massively long piece of cardboard, I was working on in post below, and similar to post below that!!!, but I think I am going to cut this off, and continue on with my original plans, and keep this small and cutsie pie! oh, by the way, this is not done...I just took a pic of the done part...you see the corners all bold and just not done...

and you know babe is always painting! ...and reading!

This evening we are going to our fav pumpkin patch for some end of the day shots...of you know, pumpkins, but really kids!  My kids are dying to go, and ready long ago, but I was like, no way, homework, housework, and I need the best light for our shoot.  Ohhhh MOM!!!

  4. I love this, it may be cutesie, but it is also wonderful and evokes a feeling of charm and whimsy. I think it is turning out fantastically. And I always love the sweet pictures of your kids in action. Those are the best kind. Very fun, looks like a grand day!
