I woke up with an itch to hold a brush... and realized that I don't have a canvas or a journal. What to do? Find an old painting that you don't like and paint over it. I didn't paint over everything, just did a makeover on the girl. Her face bothered me for the longest time, so I painted a new one and gave her a new haircut. You can see the 'original' here. Does it look better to you?
She is gorgeous! I really love your backgrounds as well! Oh, and I thought the original girl was also pretty. :) Shonna
ReplyDeleteVery enterprising! I love how the make over turned out. And the flowers in the background really make it zing. Lovely, lovely.
ReplyDeleteI like them both. But one is gone now. I bet that was fun. It really is still on of my favorites. I love love love seeing the snips and snaps cropped and close up. Cool
ReplyDeleteI like the makeover too..She seems lighter and brighter. Really neat post!
ReplyDeleteThe original was good but this one is great! Once again, I love the hair.
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful! But I can't imagine waking up without a canvas or a journal. Darling, that's a big "no no"!!! I love this. She is gorgeous!
