Birds & Flowers...More spring thoughts!!

AJJM theme is things with wings!
Here's two on a set of 4 canvases....


I bought this set of canvases.....



I wanted to create a composition that could hang
together or separate....
what a challenge!
I'am still channeling spring!
The day I painted this, this was the view outside my window!


Another snow day...
hopefully the last!



So I primed and got started!! 

Here's a look over my shoulder...



Here's how they came out...
as a set of 4...
or individually...
you choose!!!







Thanks For Stopping By......

    Your style of creating is amazing! What did you make the tree branch with? I loved watching you sketch out the canvases!

    Hi Denise, this is my first time visiting your blog and I LOVE watching your videos!! I have a couple of questions. What did you use to make your flower petals and what were you painting the edges with. It looked like a little piece of paper. I loved these canvases!! Absolutely beautiful!!

      Hi Lois.. Thx for stopping bye! I used a cardboard toilet paper tube, they are easily bendable to the shape you want. The edges of the canvas were made with an old credit card or plastic key card, by dragging the paint across the canvas. Good Luck!
