Covered in Paint

"Follow Your Heart, But Take Your Brain With You."

I am not sure why, but I have always liked this quote. While the school year is just beginning I am trying to do as many paintings as I can. Last night, I painted the background, which ended up being an abstract mixture of neon pink, black, and white. Today, I painted the quote on top of it. Here is the final product. 




What I like about this style of painting is that there is a lot of texture in it as you can see in the last photo. 
You can purchase this painting here!


Hope you all are having a fabulous weekend!
Love,

Pretty Colors

As I posted yesterday, I am working on a new painting this week. And, well I think it is turning out pretty good. I am not done yet, but here is the current standing of it. 



I am kind of tired of my typical paintings so I decided to try something new. So, I simply painted without paint brushes. The entire painting was done by just adding paint directly onto the canvas and then shaking, turning, and hitting the canvas edge on the ground. LOL yes, that is what I did. The blue paint is the sky and the green is the grass, obvi. The flower standing up in the middle symbolizes maintaining beauty and strength even when the times get rough (cause rain is terrible right?). Not sure if I am going to add anything else, but over the next few days I will post it on my Etsy page for purchase. 
And yes, I do most of my painting in the middle of all of my junk thrown on my floor. But, hey, I'm a college student give me a break!

Love,
