Paint Party Friday

I made this for my son and dil for Christmas, and they loved it. Whew! It is so hard to make something (arty) personal for people you love, I never realised it before. They couldn't stop giggling. My son said he looks like a drug warlord!!

It was a good Christmas, the first one in years that I haven't felt anxious about sibling relationships. I feel so relieved and happy inside. All is well again.

It will be 2013 when we meet again in PPF, so I am wishing you all a fabulously happy, healthy and arty 2013. Special thanks to Eva and Kristin for hosting this blog, you make my week!

Fab colour portrait!

Great painting. I know your son loved the bright colors. Very festive. BTW, I don't think it looks like a drug lord, but then, I don't think I've ever seen a drug lord.

Fabulous! Of course they would love it! They have been immortalized by the wonderful artist Joss in her bright and happy style. It's wonderful!
I'm so glad you holidays went well. Happy New Year to you, Joss!

That's fantastic! It think it's a quiet paint party this week; I know I'm taking a little blog break right now.
