Gifts

I paint gifts for other people. Thanks to Mother's Day, my mom's birthday, and Father's Day happening so close together, I was back to painting.

For my mom's birthday, I did a small painting of her favorite perfume. Now she always has a full bottle of Cristalle!

I forgot to take a picture of the final painting.

For Mother's Day, I experimented with bleeding a second color before the first one was dry. I loved how it took on a life of its own. For Father's Day, I was inspired by an artist I follow on Instagram. Jessica was doing so many gorgeous starry night scenes that I knew would be perfect for my dad.

Sooner or later, I will paint for myself too!
