My weekend has been filled with lots of this.
In this stage of my life, I have a lot of time on my hands... sometimes I think a little too much, but I'm taking full advantage of all the time I get. I know it won't always be like this :)
Anyways... I've decided to take up painting. Ha... we'll see how long this lasts. But I'm really liking it. I spent hours and hours painting this weekend. It's just so fun and relaxing! I've learned something about myself- I really love to create. There's something so incredible about being the artist and making something that is yours.
Here's some random ones I've done:
Can you tell what's on my mind? I'm craving cozy, chilly weather :)
Obviously, I'm a newbie but I'm having fun learning!
Today.... I'm thankful for the God-given ability to CREATE
Hope you all had a relaxing weekend!
I'm seriously impressed...and slightly jealous you inherited the more "creative" gene in the Ross family ;)

ReplyDeleteThose are lovely pictures! You have a talent, my friend :] And I love that we, as created beings, have the urge to create as well. Keep painting, Beth!
ReplyDeleteThese are great and I'm so impressed! I can't even draw stick people.

ReplyDeleteI did art A Level (not sure what your equivalent is in the US, the exams you do when you're 17/18 anyway!) and loved it but haven't done much since then.
I'm hoping to have an art corner in the spare bedroom of our new house!
Bethany, these look great! Good job! I want to paint some abstracty-type art for our place, but since it's just temporary I haven't really been too inspired to try it out.
ReplyDeletethose paintings are beautiful! :)
ReplyDeleteLooks great! It's been forever since I painted last. Just not enough time =(
