Linking to PPF

I don’t like these two pages, so I’ll be changing them soon. This was basically what I call I’m super busy, so I have to do something super fast for my daily painting project. Or, you could consider it my first layer, and there will be more to come.

I often wonder what she’s thinking about when she stares at me so intently. I think most of the time she’s plotting to kill me in my sleep, but I could be wrong. lol

I covered the panel in collage paper before I started. Actually, I’ve been doing that with all these new 5x7s on canvas panels because I don’t like painting directly on canvas. I’ve never liked the texture of canvas or how the painting looks afterwards with the texture poking through. I prefer paper or a smooth surface. I didn’t have time to throw some modeling paste on it, wait for it to dry, wet sand, and gesso. So, collage paper it was.

Anyway, as I was tearing up some collage paper I noticed the words “be open” staring back at me. I instantly knew that was going to be the title of this piece.

I usually don’t title a piece until I’m sitting in front of my computer, editing the photo of it. I should share how I come up with titles of my pieces. It’s kinda weird, but I’ve been doing it this way for years. Making a mental note, and will tell you soon.

Biggest mistake that beginners make 

I really like this painting, and this handbag. I wonder why? 😉 Hint: pink!! Also, I have a thing for purses and bags. 

I would totally do this!!
