Well, it's that time again, when my Challenge Group posts their monthly interpretations of a theme or idea. This month the theme was "Dream". First of all, I'm completely lost when it comes to 'making stuff up' about a painting, and this is why I never thought of myself as a creative person for many years. I started this and was really going places with it, till my loving husband told me I needed to make it 'sparkle' more. OK.... I darkened the background, changed the color, changed it back, repainted the 'steps' on the inside of the stone, changed the shape of the diamond, gave it double claws like a 'real' HW, and then declared it completely dead. If you check the Challenge Blog you'll see I did a Mermaid's Dream. Just thought you'd get a chuckle out of this. No, it's not something I own. I just love sparkles, and.. let's be honest, in real life they're pretty sparkly!
As an aside, I've been paying more attention to my Studio Blog, and, well, Paco's Blog is featuring him and my MARTINI!

ReplyDeleteYou should've told your hubby the best way to make the painting more accurate and sparkly would be to have a real-life reference to work with!

This is a super cool painting. Wonderful.
ReplyDeleteDon't you hate that, when you go to change ONE thing about a painting, which requires another change, which requires another...ad infinitum.
