making a canvas

after painting that piece of  cardboard the other day i decided to keep painting and pulled out a 6 x 6 canvas to gesso and get ready to use.  i decided to let the cardboard painting as it was but i did use some old vintage text on this painting.  i really like the added interest.  i will do another one because i have an idea of something different i want to try.  doing this canvas made me reopen my etsy shop...if you'd like to purchase this piece of art please check out my etsy shop:  http://www.etsy.com/shop/rocnic23

  7. RocStar! Look at you spreading your artsy wings and look at you fly! I have just been writing to someone else that I am bored with my art and ready to try something new. And a few minutes later, here I am being inspired by your example. It takes guts to venture out of what is comfortable but oh what an adventure! You are so talented and your paintings absolutely beautiful!

  9. Oh! I'm so happy to find your blog. I'm sure Terri had a link somewhere but I typically need a little more help in life to find my way around than the average gal...lol! You paint too?! I have so enjoyed the Blue Finger productions! You girls "roc"! And when you put that DARLING Benjamin in your Etsy shop contact me immediately. You lucky Grandmother, you! So nice to meet you, Roc! Xo, Sue
