Feelin Fall
So, I know it's only officially the 3rd day of Autumn, but I LOVE fall! I pulled out my few decorations, and found then miserably sparse! So I scavenged through my canvases, paints, and painting magazines. I combined a little together, and now I've got this little guy to put on my wall tomorrow!

Laundry likeness
I just finished a simple canvas to hang in my laundry room.
I painted an 8x10 canvas 2/3 blue on the top, and the bottom 1/3 light green. I blended some light blue into the blue sky portion. I painted two thin brown posts, one on the left and one on the right. Then I painted a thin black line draping from the top of one post to the top of the next. I painted some grass into the light green area with a darker green, then added some flowers. I cut out simple clothing shapes from some patterned paper: dresses, pants, shirts & socks. When the canvas was dry, I used decoupage to adhere the paper clothing onto the painted clothing line on the canvas. And that's it!
