Well, when I set out the paint this the other day, the background became something else. It became the one with all the drips on - you know the pretty one!! :) While working on it I messed it up, so I thought I would just go back to my original idea.
So much for the pretty canvas - but such is the process of painting, sometimes as in life it requires detours. I will do another "spill it" later. Anyway, I am really pleased with how this came out. It is 30X40, and it has more texture than it looks here. I can never get an accurate photo of my work. Oh, you can click on the painting and get a better view of the texture.
When I looked up the word nestled, I also found these - close, snug, cuddle, snuggle, sheltered. Words that should speak of home. That do speak of home in Jesus to me.
Blessings!

Mary, I love it!!!!! I am giving up Vintage Village so that I can start painting again! It takes up way to much time!
Love you,

This makes me smile. Really appreciated being able to see the larger version and take in all the nuances of brush stokes, textures and layers. I love the forgiving nature of this kind of art medium, nothing is beyond redemption :-)
a happy uplifting painting...so it was meant to become this
and not that...
your spill it background was pretty too!
my camera doesn't ever pick up the textures either...and i have a "good" one
i wonder what i might do wrong to pick up all of the areas everyone else seems to get
?
sigh
everything about it is perfect.....i absolutely LOVE it, mary!! :))
Hiya Mary!
Your paintings have a lot of life in them! I love this - I did enlarge it to have a look at the texture as you suggested, its gorgeous, makes you want to reach out and touch....
Hi Mary Just stopping by to say hello. As usual your paintings are so MARY. I could tell who did them without knowing because they all take on your optimistic personality. Hugs, Mollye
