Once again.....for the second time in my life.....I went to Paint Your Art Out or PYAO and have another piece of original really marginal art!
I was relieved to have the finished product.
Sharon went the extra mile and put the vine on her stem.
There is an artist who tells you every stroke to paint and he's painting as we are AND there is a finished painting that we can look at, but it is still really not in my comfort zone.
As he's saying it's really just about layering the paint, I'm panicking with every teeny bit of paint that goes on my canvas. After all, when they give you the canvas, it's so nice and white and clean. I always kind of hate to mess with that clean look!
While we were paintingand I was making lots of strange faces, he was walking around looking at what everyone was doing.......He stood behind me for a while until I said "My stem is ugly and a mess". He said "Oh, so you know that", like he was trying to figure out how to tell me it was ugly and was relieved that I had already figured that out myself! Well if I had any doubts, he confirmed that I shouldn't doubt my own eyes. He just reached over with his brush and fixed the stem and made it look so easy.
I was kind of proud of my pumpkin, but I'm thinking the Superhero had some doubts, especially when I put it here....
Yep, my pumpkin took it's place of honor in the living room for the Fall season!
I'll never be an artist, but if you want to have a good time, grab a friend and head to your local art center, it's lots of fun. Even if you've never painted, throw caution to the wind and give it a try!
