a first attempt.

Remember how I said I was going to attempt painting over the weekend? Well I did. My art work is less than impressive. I used oil paints for the first time and decided to try my hand at a simple pattern, just to get the hang of things. So, chevron it was.

There's a sneak peek, and that is all you get:) Next time I think I will attempt something a bit more abstract with a wider range of colors. Anyone out there paint?? Do you prefer oil or acrylic?

I've been a little obsessed with art lately. I love anything unique, creative, colorful, abstract, real life, neutral...I love it all. Certain pieces appeal to me and often times I'm not even sure why. I only have a few pieces of art at the moment. Three that I bought--for super cheap, and one that was gifted, a painting done by one of my bridesmaids. Which she finished in her car 30 minutes before my wedding:)

Here are some more pieces that I am loving:

This weekend I think I am going to try my hand at painting a canvas. If it turns out halfway decent I will share it here on the blog. Wish me luck!
