Over the last few weeks I have been creating a canvas based around my name using a loose style of painting which I have built up with layers.<\/p>\n

I started with the letters and then thought of designs that began with those letters, weaving them through the text.<\/p>\n

\"\" <\/a> <\/div> <\/div>
\"\" <\/a> <\/div>
\"\" <\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>\n

Even though I wanted this to be a loose style, I still used acrylics with colours from the Jo Sonja Creative Possibilities kit.<\/p>\n

\"\" <\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>\n

I’m really pleased with how it came out and will definitely be running this project as a workshop later in the year….you will get to choose your own word and create your own designs \ud83d\ude42 this will be a really exciting project!<\/p>\n

\"\" <\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>\n

Not sure what I will paint next…but as I’ve always said, being creative is very therapeutic so it won’t be long ’til my brushes are out again :-)))<\/p>\n

Have a great weekend….I hear it’s going to be a warm one!<\/p>\n
