Paint Party Friday - Lamppost



Welcome to December and Paint Party Friday! This piece is called 'Lamppost', based on a photo I took in the neighbourhood. It is an ACEO art card (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") done in acrylic on canvas.

I am excited to show you my new high quality acrylic paints that I decided to invest in.  Michael's arts and craft store will often run 50% coupons on regular priced items so I took advantage of this.

Good for you! You deserve it! You do inspire me. I have a sketch of our resort pool, but I'm still working through the trip saga.

This is a lovely lamppost painting. The different shades of green in the hedge looks adorable.

Congrats on new materials at a great savings-always inspiring to our work! I haven't done any ATCs in a while but your lamp post scene inspires me to try again!

Rain said...

Your lamppost is great! I have a hard time drawing those for some reason! :) I LOVE Michael's. I don't think I've ever bought something there without one of their coupons! :)
