Something about the rougher brush strokes and your colors made me think of her.Moocyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02062843137739471885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435332729002449632.post-19430976198120308332011-02-02T07:29:12.356-08:002011-02-02T07:29:12.356-08:00thanks people! the painting is actually pretty sma...thanks people! the painting is actually pretty small, which might explain why it only took half an hour. it's actually done on wood that was sort of the "extra" part of your pregnancy painting, adrienne! when i finished that painting i cut off the excess i didn't use, and that's what this is. it's only about a foot tall by maybe 8 inches across. <br /><br />your comments mean a lot! i'm surprised it's such a hit actually. when i was painting it i knew i had past some sort of blockage and it felt really liberating, because i wasn't babying it and i didn't care about "prettiness." i'm really glad that so many other people see something they like in it too! when others have a good reaction to art you create, it's validating.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12862935403393181644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435332729002449632.post-56362684565774125122011-02-01T19:29:04.022-08:002011-02-01T19:29:04.022-08:00aah, i kept meaning to say something, but your pos...aah, i kept meaning to say something, but your post reminded me - a guy covered 'purple rain' at open mic night last week, at the local pub - did a great job & totally reminded me of you!<br /><br />also, you did this in <b>half an hour?!</b> it's wonderful!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14579248506143929486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435332729002449632.post-80930014327198918392011-02-01T19:13:23.905-08:002011-02-01T19:13:23.905-08:00And this looks so much more mature than a lot of y...And this looks so much more mature than a lot of your other work (which is still amazing)--but you've totally gone to a whole new level here--and I can't believe you did it so quickly!

You should totally start doing a painting a night, hehe. <br /><br />Anyway, glad to hear that this teacher is awesome too! Even though you loved your old teacher so much, I find that having different teachers helps me in different ways--sounds like that's the case with you, too!justadriennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18352793325470030016noreply@blogger.com
