I finished a nice background awhile back. Like in August maybe. But then I was unable to do anything with it. And I haven’t painted anything new since then. What with school. It was my first semester, so just getting back into the swing of it. I’d look at that background from time to time, but nothing came to me.
Anyway, I’ve been wanting to paint again as I’ve been unpacking. Waiting to get the art room settled. I didn’t know how I wanted to painted or what. Just that I wanted to.
Then I got some embellishments, some glitter, some new stamps.
The art room is not done, but it’s done enough. All I have left are finding spots for a few leftover things. So I painted.
