Day 11 of 30 Days of Creativity: In Daddy's Hands Painting

Today is day 11 of the 30 Days of Creativity Challenge, and I decided to paint something in honor of Father's Day. Since I am a huge fan of silhouette paintings I decided to paint a Daddy with his little girl at dusk by the water. He is safely lifting her into the air while standing at the water's edge, on some rocks. You can hear her shreek with delight. I really love this painting. It is truly one of a kind, as I only painted one. This will be available in my Etsy store by tomorrow morning. I can paint more of these if needed. So message me if you are interested in one. One thing I have learned, as I continue to paint, is that you learn as you go. Like I think the water could have been darker to look more like dusk. But, I will remember that for the next time.  Be sure to check out my Etsy store for all my wonderful paintings, jewelry, and cross stitch housewares.

Day 3 of 30 Days of Creativity: USA theme Painted Mailbox

OK, I did exactly what I said I was not going to do, LOL! I said we were not going to paint the mailbox today, because we were going somewhere in the morning. Obviously those plans fell through, and the mailbox got painted this morning. It is a flag, obviously. There are indeed fifty stars, for each state. Our name is on the front, Caitlin painted the sun on the back, and the both of us made the stripes. Painting stripes in a perfectly straight line, for an eight year old proved to be not so easy, lol! I love it! Now starting tomorrow, I think I will start on some of the pieces I want to create to sell. Have a happy Sunday, everyone. Oh, the last picture is the other tire, we did a few months ago, showing the flowers on our cucumber plants. Yum, cucumbers!
