My Painted Butterfly

I tried something different the other day. Painting. No,,,not like painting painting,,,I mean really painting....like all Van Gogh-like. I have never really painted anything.

My intention was to do the transfer thing from the Graphics Fairy. Which I did.

But it barely transferred. I dont know what Im doing wrong. All I managed to get was the outline

of the butterfly and the faint writing of the letters.

So I started to outline the whole shebang in black liner. And then I thought, hmmm, how hard can
it be to paint in the colors??? I have some artist brushes. If it doesnt work out, Ill just sand the whole thing off and start over. Its only paint!!! So thats what I did.

I had already painted the table in my chalk paint using DE "Lambs Wool". I just love that name.
Its a very faint creamy pale yellow.

I was a paint mixin fool! I didnt have the exact shade of green as the pic, so I mixed a few.

Viola!

Dont be trying to spot the differences from either side. I know butterflies are mirror images
on their wings. Mine isnt! Hah!

Thank You Graphics Fairy for the lovely print.

I love my guitar

Like a lot of people, I love music! My favorite music is country, and Merle Haggard is my favorite artist. He sings about the hard times in his life and his songs really have meaning too them.

I started playing guitar when I was about 14 and I enjoyed it then but I really wasnt very good. I have never taken lessons but I have had a few people show me a few things here and there, but most of what I have learned has been from the internet, what a great resource.

I love playing my resonator, and it is sitting beside my computer in its stand as I type. I pic it up a few times nearly every day and play for a little while. I have certainly progressed since first days playing and I think I have above average skills.

I enjoy singing too, a karaoke bar is a great place to laugha and have fun. I mostly like to sing and play to myself in my room when no one is around. I will play for freinds and family but not if I am pressured or bragged about to much. I am definately nothing to bragg about so when people do (mostly my mother) it makes me uncomfortable and I think people are expecting more than I have to offer.
