This was really fun to work on because I love the buttery softness of oils being spread with a knife, and also because this was the first time I stretched and gessoed my own canvas - and it's always fun to do a new thing. Most difficult to manage was the complete lack of space in our apartment to accommodate trying to paint on such a large canvas (it is something like 1.5 feet by 5 feet). I actually ended up having to put it into our little basement storage area to dry since we have no surface large enough and elevated enough for it to remain undisturbed in here!

For my birthday I was a large abstract painting. :-)
That's beautiful. Is there anything you can't do?
No no. I "was not" an abstract painting! I "want" an abstract painting. In utro I was probably pretty abstract, but hopefully not since then.
nd as the proud owner of the beautiful painting I can say that it looks even better on the wall of my wonderful house. Thank you, Anna - You are the best daughter a mother could wish!!!
What a great painting. I'm very impressed.
