So, I found these a few weeks ago and thought I should find something to use these for. I bought them over five years again in Germany for 2,50Euros, it's about time they find a home either on my walls or on someone elses.
I have this empty space above my computer-I thought perfect location for some wall art.
I went on a search for something to inspire me and came across this picture here
I grabbed my pens and started to "swirl," then school started and my canvas was put in the pile of UFO's in my bedroom.
I decided this would be a great inspiration to get my butt in gear and finish all those UFO's in my room. It would be something I would see everyday to encourage me.
I wanted my picture to be personalized, I decided to add each family members name to my art (soldier boy wanted his to be on a grasshopper ?? no idea why. Can you see it on the grasshoppers leg).
I absolutely love my art! It isn't quite as good as sometimesiswirl but for my very first drawing ever I am pretty pleased. My kids love looking at it and finding their names, looking for the bugs and seeing the different flowers. Everytime they look at it they find something new. Just watching them enjoy it makes me love it all the more.My middle name is star so I added a star flower. I love citrus fragerances, the flower on the right reminds me of an orange and my name is in the center of the flower on top of the swirl.
Thanks you sometimesiswirl for the inspiration!
Your talent just keeps on emerging. What's next will be anyone's guess, but I can tell you when it's done it'll be something to be proud of.
