Thank you all so much for the ideas on the marker. Other than a “dot” on the center of her forehead, we are cleared. She got over me cleaning her up is the only reason the dot is still there. For the most part, I don’t have to worry about my kids when they are off by themselves. Not saying they don’t get into anything, but most times they are scared of the consequences to really do much. Em on the other hand is much braver than her brothers. Needless to say, she really isn’t scared of me – very concerning in some areas. In other areas, I admire her courage.

In an amazing attempt, I did it! Completed! Another painting! And I feel like I need to clean my house now. I’ve neglected everything this weekend. I just had an idea with this painting from the time the order came through my inbox. I couldn’t stop. Sorta like instant gratification – it just really wasn’t instant. But I never really walked away from the canvas and just worked straight through till it was finished. That is about as instant as you can get when it comes to a hand painted canvas!

As I stated in yesterday’s post . . . It was ORANGE

TURQUOISE

And then some BLACK & WHITE which gave me something like this . . . .

This is the same Emma from yesterday’s post. Gavin is her brother and this painting will go into their penguin themed bathroom.

I did a wash in the center since I’ve not done that with this particular design.

Next one on the list is the final one for the above order and it is a 16×40 – I’m lovin’ this big canvases!

I had every intentions of posting a picture yesterday of this painting. And well, life took over. I really need to blog about the random stuff that happens on a daily basis – I’m positive that I will be contacted immediately for my own reality show!

Or a book deal!

Either way – please know that I always have the BEST of intentions. Just like I’m sure Em did when she drew all over her face with a marker.

But seriously, this is another awesome bedroom! Now I’m torn between Amelia’s or Emma’s?!?!? Maybe I can split my time between the two.

I love the ice cream sunday art – over the top cuteness!!!

The flowers are made out of fabrics from all over the room! Check out that super cute owl pillow on the bed . . . . Yeah, I used those fabrics. {And no one ask, because I did NOT make that cute pillow!}

This is one off my list, but there are a couple more from this order before I can truly mark it off.

I now have a date with orange, turquoise, black and white. My goal is to have it completed by tomorrow!!! But first I need to see how “permanent” permanent marker really is . . . on facial skin.
