I'm in on Donna Downey's monthly online canvas class and this is my take on the February project. It's 9X12. Serious fun making this! Lots of "oops" but I learned how to cover them up and keep going.
I used patterned paper, gesso, acrylic paints, gel medium, Tim Holtz tissue tape, stencils (Dyan Reaveley, Balzer Designs, and Small Studio Productions) and archival ink (Ranger). I really love painting. Can't wait to see next month's project.
Thanks for the visit. Hope you have a wonderful week!
A housekeeping note... I'd really appreciate your clicking the "Network Blogs" follow option @ right... begining March 1st the Google Friend Connect feature will no longer work for my blog.

Joyful, vibrant colour, so fresh.
Marjie, I am sorry I cannot sign up because I am not on Facebook. I know, am I the only person who isn't on Facebook, maybe it is time I took the giant leap and signed up.

This is amazing. I love how you mention the 'fun' bit - it most certainly is!
