Thumbprint Art

Looksie what I made.  It's quiet large, about 2 foot by 2 foot and hanging in my dining room currently.  It's so "Happy" to look at.

I just took string and tied a piece around the canvas every two inches vertically and horizontally, until I had a complete grid pattern.  Then with a light pen marked every intersection of the grid, so I would be able to evenly space my thumbprints.  I removed the strings, and started pouring paint and making thumbprints.  It was a good time.  It was like being a kid with finger paint all over again.  Not too shabby a result.  I wish I could take better pictures of things I made, so you could get the full effect.

Pink Cow NYR #8

I've been so busy pumping up all my wedding posts from last year, and filling in the holes.  That I have totally been ignoring the "here and now."

Plus, I have another excuse.  My husband has been sick, so we haven't been getting out much.  Not that being sutck at home hurts my feelings too much, the rain kinda puts a damper on my desire to go conquer the world.  Or leave the house basically. lol

As part of trying to decorate our new house here in Norway, I took the opportunity to get to painting.  Here is my cow.  And whats extra great about him, I started to conquer my New Years Resolutions.  #8  Paint Pretty Pictures.

I really like him.  He is going to be a very proud hung cow, once, I find a place for him.  :)
