Several years ago I found a painting of red geraniums on a framed, window screen in a thrift store. I thought it was a clever idea and it would look good on our front porch, so I bought it. It has hung on our front porch many times over several summers, and it started to lose its pizazz.
Instead of throwing it out I decided to try touching it up myself, with my acrylic paints.
I put on an old t-shirt, squeezed paint onto a paint palette, and did my best. I filled in the reds, and mixed red and yellow paint for orange, and blue and yellow for green, and repainted the pot and added a bit of color here, and a bit there. It was a fun, creative endeavor!
And I think it turned out very well. The painting has found new life and is hanging on my front porch once again.
Lovely!
Thanks Jeanie.
Looks great Valerie!
Thank you Vic.
Fabulous! I remember you getting that painting… so fun : )
I thought you’d remember when we bought this.
I have always enjoyed it…even more now.
I admire your ingenuity! I think you discovered a new talent!
Thanks Vicki.
I enjoyed painting it but I was happy to have guidelines.
I really like it Valerie!
Thanks Karen!
Great that you brought that painting back to life!
I am glad it came back! ha
It was fun to work on.
Good for you, Valerie. This did, indeed, turn out well.
Thank you. I like it.
