Michele's Christmas gift: Aspens in Winter
photo #1: Masked off canvas.
photo #2: Masking removed. Looking back, I actually like this state the best. If it were going to hang in a mod-loft I'd have left it this way.
photo #3: Disasterously placed spades/sting rays overtook the canvas.
photo #4: Remasked and repainted. Square one except the black paint drips are now under the masking.
photo #5: Repositioned and added leaves with silver leafing. Faint script added to trees. Final product.
(I am in the process of painting aspens in four seasons for Michele's living room wall. I'll find a photo of the fall aspens and edit it in here.)

Cool!
wow. i agree that the second pic is very cool. i am amazed how you fixed it and re-did it to end up with such a great result! this is by FAR my favorite present (not to mention it was a surprise. i saw the wrapped canvas behind the tree but didn't even consider that it was for me!) thank you! you'll have to come see where we put it.
you thiessens are ridiculous with your unending talents. i loved reading your blog. hooray for michelle for posting a link.
By the way, I got my custom earrings yesterday. Fabulous! The perfect size and the perfect treatment. I got new holes in my ears, so the placement of the posts is perfect. I love the weight of them. Thank you so much! Now I can hardly wait to open my Christmas gift.
