Tree Painting


(FYI- this one is 4'x5')

Here is Angela's second painting. This one is for our wide open vaulted living room. We will put up a picture once it is hanging on the green wall but the edges of the canvas still have to be finished first. This one is an original piece Angela designed from a combination of few different tree paintings. There is an area between the tree and the roots where the canvas fabric itself is damaged causing an interesting glare for certain angles so we are still deciding how we might solve this problem. Once thought we have is painting a nice "family tree" quote in that space or maybe a tire swing or something if we can figure a way to "tie" it to the unique branches!!!!

Anyway, for now we are leaving it be before deciding but we already know Angela will lose sleep over it so feel free to give any suggestions or opinions!!!

Angela's First Painting!!!


(FYI- 4ft wide x 3ft tall!!!!)

We repainted our kitchen and decided to decorate it in a bistro/chef style theme throughout! With one huge wall in the eat-in area we thought it would be cool to put up a bistro logo to tie the rooms together. The outcome- this painting done by Angela--- if you can't see the detail, it is "Michaelangela's Irish Twins Bistro Est. 2010" with the quote: Where we cook with wine- Sometimes we even put it in the food!

We just hope it looks good up on the wall

It is actually still drying in this picture- so once dry up it will go with all fingers crossed!!!!!
