You guys, guess what?!

That ginormous and incredibly intimidating painting of Peanut is finished. FINISHED, I TELL YOU!

Although it was supposed to be a birthday gift for Philip (oops, that was back in May), and I took so many long breaks so that it took me nearly three months to complete it, at least it’s done.  And the best part is that I don’t hate it — I actually am really pleased with how it came out. Whew. Big, huge weight off my shoulders.

And now it’s time to get this six foot tall painting out of my house and get it sent off to its permanent location (Philip’s office at work). As much as I like the painting, I’m so ready to have the wall space back.

the color is a little off, and some details got washed out, but you get the idea.

Now it’s time to start on a big diptych for the boy’s nursery, and a big square painting for above our bed (which I just might do a DIY for, so watch for that!)

Happy Tuesday!
