Doodles & Stitches: My New Birch Painting

Birch Painting

This is what I've been working on this week...

I guess I'll call it "Birch Trees"

When Steve & I were visiting Utah in September, I fell in love with these beautiful trees.

I took some photos of them and decided I wanted to paint them.

This week has been my first chance to paint a canvas instead of furniture!

The painting measures 24 x 30"and I just finished it this afternoon.

I will probably buy a frame for it tomorrow.

I can't decide if I will put this one in the studio (for sale) or if I'll hang it in my house.

It's going to look so much better in a frame.

I probably should have waited to post it until...

I had a decent photo, it was framed

and the paint was dry...

but I was excited to show it off.

I took this pic with my phone so excuse the quality.

Here's one of the photos I took on a morning hike. Aren't they gorgeous?
