Darla McDowell: Homework

Homework

You know those paintings that just seem to paint themselves? Well, this wasn't one of those! I am not sure why I struggled so with this little painting yesterday, but I did. I finally just called it quits after about 4 hours. Today is a new day, though. And I am looking forward to getting back in the studio. Life is good.

I hope you're having a great Sunday! Happy painting!

Darla McDowell said...: You girls are so sweet. Thank you for your very kind words. I did something that I almost never do with a painting. I re-worked this one, and I like it a bit better. I will post the updated image soon. Thanks again! :); November 20, 2013 at 1:02 PM
