My first REAL attempt at painting for real.

Okay... so i know what you're thinkin'... whatever lindsay! you've painted before! i've seen it!.... yeah... but what you DIDN'T know is that i didn't try very hard and would get frustrated with ALL of my previous paintings and then just give up and hang it up anyway because it passed the Enos test. This, however, is no longer a good enough test for me... it needs to pass MY inspection.. i need to feel proud of SOME sort of art that i've physically done and isn't just a bunch of zeros and ones on the computer.... so here it is.... it DID cause me a lot of stress because i kept wanting to give up... but i'm glad i didn't... and i'm fairly happy with the result considering it was my first.

I love, love this. I think it is cool that you are working on real, live painting.

I would like to real, live paint with you all night long.

This owl can come too.

Who can not love an owl!!! I love the colors and the brush strokes it's so you and even though it's no Del Parson it definatly has your take on it. I would hang it in my house or even pay bucks for it!
