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. 😉
