Thrifty Thursday | But not Really...

5/22/14

i am an artist. i love it when i get a project that gives me total freedom and that was this past project to a tea! my aunt asked me to paint some TOMS for her granddaughter and gave me some ideas of what she likes. i started some ideas and since she likes the ocean and animals i thought it would be a good idea to paint some kind of sea creature. i settle on an octopus although seriously considered a whale... but i think the octopus is pretty in right now (according to pinterest.) here are some snaps of the actually process.

    1. Thanks rachelle! I really like how they turned out! Painting on things other than canvas is a stretch though!
