This week I went to a discount art store in Greensboro. I bought a 12 by 12 canvas and two new paint brushes for this weeks painting. I also had to go to Walmart to buy some paint. The whole trip cost me about 30.00 dollars which isn´t to bad. The painting I decided on was three daises in a jar. This is the first time I have tried to paint on canvas except finger painting I did for my mom in elementary school. I followed a YouTube tutorial for beginners that was only 10 minutes long. I thought that it would only take me about half and hour considering my inexperience. It took me about 3 hours! I kept making mistakes because I need a smaller brush. I also couldn´t find my yellow paint so had to mix blue and green paint. The most time consuming part was getting the correct shape of the daises. Overall I enjoyed painting it and I will definitely be painting more in the future. This is the link to the YouTube tutorial. Below is my painting. I showed my painting my family and I gave it to my mother. She said from now on I need to paint her stuff. My sisters fiance said he wants to set up an Etsy shop and sell my paintings. He already owns a painting business but, it is for painting walls and stuff like that. He made me a deal that if he buys all the supplies I need, posts them for me that he will get 50%. I think it is a great deal because art supplies are expensive and it would be nice to have some extra money.
The only problem with it is that I don´t think anyone will want to buy them.
