A thing!

[fuzzyred]

I did a thing! I went to paint night with my mom and sister, for free since my mom got the tickets. I'm actually pleased with how the painiting turned out, since I'm not very artistic. It was a nice way to relax after a very tedious day at work. (16 work days in a row of the exact same thing. I think I'm losing my sanity).

In other news, I have also begun making an EFA kit, though I am undecided on where to keep it at the moment. Yay for progress!

Hey. Might we ask for a physical description of your painting? :D

We're all glad you had fun. Painting night sounds very nice, and like something we'd enjoy, too. I know Nora would. I mean, there're plenty of artistic types in here, but Nora's the one who comes to mind specifically.
Also, *hugs* Tedious work days are hard.

Description

I will try my best to describe it :D
The canvas is roughly 12 inches by 15 inches, painted portrait style. It has a yellow background which starts light in the middle and gets darker towards the edges. There is a dark green wreath painted just above the center of the canvas, with with lightest yellow inside (like a candle glow). Inside the wreath is a red lantern which contains a candle. There is a dark purple pole from the base of the lantern to the bottom of the canvas. There is a red bow tied onto the pole. The wreath has round yellow, red, and blue ornaments painted in it to make it look like a holiday wreath. White paint was added on top of the wreath, ornaments, bow and lantern to look like snow, with a few dots in the background for snowflakes.

It was very nice and not stressful at all, which I was a little worried about. The instructor was clear and mostly slow enough to keep up with so following along wasn't too hard. It was a good chance to socialize and get a little creative :)

*hugs* I'm hoping today is less tedious *fingers crossed*
