Tipsy Canvas....

has me hooked on acrylic painting!!! That's part of the reason
I haven't been online in a while. The other part is I just don't
have the time I thought I would even though it is Summer!!
: )

Here are the canvases I have painted in order from the
very first one that got me hooked to my most recent
painting...

1) Bluebonnets (now on the wall in my dining room):

2) Reflections of the City (now on the wall in the guest room):

3) Fruits of the Spirit

4) Cherry Blossoms (Punkin has claimed this for her room):

5) Palms on the Beach (on the wall in the family room):

6) American Flag (above the fireplace in the family room):
The flag is my favorite but I really have had a blast painting all of these
pictures! I am going to have to start mailing these out for Christmas gifts
if I keep this up! LOL! This is just so much fun!!!

Enjoy!

LOAD 511 is rolling...

Here are the first two layouts of May...

I'll be making lots of digital layouts this month since I'll
be traveling from the 4th through the 21st but I love the
paper layouts best so I'll be scrambling to get another
done tomorrow and early Wednesday and then all of the
layouts from the 21st on to the end of the month.

Just 2 more 'wake-up's before I head out on the first
leg of my Inspired Artist Week trip! Yahoooo!!

Yep, We Painted Bluebonnets!!!

Well, last night Tipsy Canvas set up a class at the local Country Club and then
walked 41 women through the basics of painting Bluebonnets. It was a total
blast! There was wine and appetizers provided and the canvases and paint
brushes were also provided. We showed up, picked a spot to sit down, and
were off and painting! I had such a great time and the ladies in charge were
really very nice and extremely encouraging. My friend Amy Jo went with
me (because I didn't want to keep all that painty goodness to myself!)

Here is a photo of the finished canvases we both painted!


Oh, and I know you can't really tell in this photo but we were both
wearing the SAME SHOES! Same color, same style! Too funny!

More later about more!
