For Christmas last year I wanted to do something special for Daniel. I thought about painting a picture from his mission but I couldn't find any picture that would be cool painted. Instead, since Daniel loved his home in Far West, UT and talks about his memories all of the time.... a brilliant idea came to my head to paint a picture of his home. I got a copy of the picture from his Mother and started plugging away at the painting. However, last semester was oober busy for me and I didn't have much time to work on it and I had to be careful for him not to see it, so it was really hard to even work on it. When I gave it to him it was not finished. Four months later and Waalaa..
I also made this frame years ago at the Quick Water Ranch up in Idaho. As you can see on the painting there are two little streak marks.. well I was glueing the canvas onto the frame and the glue had dripped down so i'm still quite not finished, since now I have to fix that and lighten up the rainbow still.
First! Wow that looks awesome Cass!
ReplyDeleteI love it. I love how you finished it off with the grass, the fence posts, the background bushes and the big tree. (at least I don't remember that tree being there before.) It really looks perfect. The shading on the house and the brick work and sky. Way to go!
