I wanted to make a little something for my living room so I decided to give a shot at painting with acrylic. I usually work with oil or inks, so that was interesting. I am still debating the colors of the flowers but hopefully I will decide that tonight or tomorrow. It's 16" X 20"

done!
I like how it turned out. I usually just hate what I paint and the more I look at it, the more I learn to like it.

Thank you foamy. I will go back to my usual oil and inks soon and I might post some new things after my finals.
Now I am in love with monkeys with fez hats!
