The WaLkInG aRt GaLlErY !!!
I cannot leave a denim jacket alone. I 'must' paint each one I own.
It is almost like a an addiction... painting.
I actually get a little stressed every time I see someone pass by wearing a light coloured jean jacket with no embellishments. It is almost (for lack of a better term) sacrilegious to me to let a jacket go unpainted. I guess it is the same way a traditional Artist would feel about a blank canvas.
I, however, can leave a canvas blank without painting a lick on it for years.
I held back on painting ten of my cushion covers for some 'rush' commission pieces. It's driving me nuts that they are sitting there waiting until the new year. UGH!!!
So, what did I do, ...... I went out and bought myself a new denim jacket. YEAH!
Once I finish painting the commissioned messenger bag, the jacket will be next on my list. (Actually I have a couple of Christmas items I have to finish painting before I get to the jacket, but you get the idea.)
(The photo of me was taken by Alex Browne from the Peace Arch News last year for a newspaper article. The other photo is of a jacket I painted many years ago.)
Have a great night!
Keep smiling & creating!
