Getting started

It's been  awhile since I've painted, so I spent a little time practicing first, and then chose a flower (the cabbage rose) that I've painted many times.  It took a little time to get started.  I had to take the linseed oil back to Michael's because I couldn't get the top off.  But it all worked out.  It's great to have a paint brush back in my hand.

  1. I am sure it does feel good to be painting again. The flower is pretty. I like the blue too.

  2. I see where you practiced on a paper first. Both flowers look beautiful to me. When I want to practice a quilting pattern, I'll make a sample square with scrap fabric before making the real thing.
