have canvas, will paint...

The Miss Baby space continues to evolve. It's amazing what one funky fabric pattern can do to the creative impulses in the ole noggin. The Mommy has been wanting to try her hand at painting again (it's been since middle school art class if memory serves correctly). If you'll remember, that funky fabric was the focus of one sweet blanket post a week or so ago. But who could stop there? Apparently not the Mommy. So she got herself some paint and canvas and went to it. The top picture is what the arrangement will eventually look like, once the fabric is stretched over a foam board and Miss Baby is awake long enough to hammer in some picture hangers on the wall. The painted berries were favorites from the print, and also the easiest, so that was an quick decision. The mod bird was a bit of an experiment and the Mommy is pleased with how he turned out. He will be stationed seperately in the room, his exact location has yet to be decided. All in all the project was fine and easy and I think I'll keep doing. Maybe I'll try to sell them on Etsy? Lord knows these were a whole lot faster than some of the more recent sewing projects. Here's to painting!
