This was a good excuse for me to paint. I don't know if I would have done it had I not set up a blog event for it. I discovered I really don't have the patience for painting, and would really rather stick to digital to do it. I just hate the setup and cleanup process, and I hate how life doesn't come with the undo button like Photoshop does. Anyway, I at least got to practice painting with acrylics. I think this was my first or second time using acrylics. And it was first time using wood as the canvas. Anyway, I want to be able to do this more often, and I have a lot of ideas for pieces I want to create, but now I just have to find the time for it. There just aren't enough hours in a day.
Amy had fun, too, I'm sure. She painted over a self-portrait of herself (which I really liked and felt heartbroken when she painted over it) but that's what's so great about oil paints (her medium of choice) and in a way that's the undo button all it's own, just in another way. It's like repainting over a memory you want to forget, not that I feel that was her intention.
