Evolving takes time! Friday had Diane coming to play with paint with me. Ya gotta hand it to the girl, she's a trouper! She high jumped over those snow banks to make it. Amazing to witness really..and well I have to say..WE KICKED SNOW DAY ASS!! It was the good kind of butt kicking though, it came with chocolate chip cookies straight from the oven..yummm
Once the sugar rush hit I threw a canvas at her and told her to follow her muse. Using our 2009 words as inspiration we sketched, we painted and even lettered.
Diane was a rock star and produced....
She really got in to the spirit of committing her word to canvas and for her FIRST EVER attempt- Did awesome!
I managed to be a little messier. Hell, Evolution is a tough business, it takes time and a about a quart of paint. My canvas was really done in a lot of layers. Very symbolic and all that stuff...If you look VERY carefully you can even see journal pages from years past. Fingers crossed you can't read the writing though...
On the 4 sides of the canvas is written "Change is on the Way", "Visualize", " Live to the Extreme" and "My personal Revolution".
The color around the lettering is oil pastels. Loved how they turned out. The quote is by Eden Phillipots.
Tomorrow is another Studio Day. Lots of cool work being done for another special project. I guess this means I should probably clean the studio before Nadia gets here!
Love the way your canvas came out! I still have to finish mine. I think it's definitely missin' something! {Hugs}

For some reason my first comment didn't go through, so if this a duplication, sorry.
Love the way your canvas turned out. Still needing to finish mine!
