undecided

I had packed this canvas away because I didn't like it, but suddenly thought I would use it to do a painting on that I have in mind. However when I unwrapped it I wasn't sure whether to eliminate it by working over it, or hang onto it after all!


It is the very first serviette/napkin decoupage picture I did when I attended a workshop to learn the basics of the technique, and to me always looks very amateurish, so I expect I shall work over it in the end.


I hope everyone is well, blessings to my blogging buddies ;o)

Hi Nettie - what a beautiful picture - it looks wonderful just as it is. The colours are so cheerful and uplifting and it would add a perfect touch to any home.
Hope you are well, hugs, Sylvia xxx

This looks lovely, Nettie, I don't think it looks amateurish at all. Perhaps you can just build upon it to make it even more gorgeous, rather than eliminating it entirely.

Hugs,

I think it is very good, but maybe for me, a little bit darker between the flowers. I am still going to change my blog. Lovies from me.
