The first layer of paint is actually on the panel which is due by the 21st of June. Since I will be out of town on the due date, I will have to deliver it early.
It has been so fun to paint this large--and the best thing of all---I had to buy new huge brushes to complete it. (But then, I find just about any occasion is a good one to buy art supplies!)

I love getting a chance to get a sense of scale on this giant painting. It looks amazing!
The panel is looking fabulous!!! WHo needs an excuse to buy art supplies??? We are supposed to have excuses?????????????????
Just ask me, I've got it! Thanks for commenting, Crystal.
I AM having fun, Cathyann!
Hi, Anudeepa. I am so proud of my son, and he was such a willing helper.
I'm glad you like the painting.
It looks even bigger to me with a painting on it than when it just had collage on it. You think it will scare small children??
Thanks, Elizabeth!
Exciting and wonderful! I like the scale of your work.
Ha! I thought you were joking about the cherry on the head of the bird, it's fabulous!!
Thanks, Kathy!
I rarely joke about cherries on bird's heads, Dana. It's no laughing matter.
Of course, I don't bowl with them, either!
Thanks for stopping by. I really loved your cherry painting today!
He will be quite a "treat" for the city of Fredericksburg. Looooove it!
Thanks, Ariel!
What a crazy fun BIG painting! Love the layers. Congrats on your show Elizabeth.
What fun to see it taking shape! It is amazing to watch your process ... I always wondered how the magic happened. Ok so it is still totally magical because I have no idea how you do that LOL!
This painting is just fun!!! And the size makes it even more fun! You're work is sooooo creative. I have a feeling you are just as fun as your work. What was the inspiration for this piece?
Hey, Paula! Yep, layers is something you and I have in common!
Thanks for the encouragement.
Hey, Dode! I wish you could come paint with me. What fun we would have! It's not magic. It's sweat and art supplies!!
Hi, Bricarwaller: Thanks for such a nice compliment!
It's funny; this image/piece is an effort to combine all the things I love--layers, color, cupcakes and birds!
I just have these ideas pop into my head, kind of organically as I'm working on something else.
I'm very lucky to get to work every day at creating my art.
what a great painting .... you do great work > I love it !
Aw, thanks, Sandy. Right back at ya! I'm so glad to hear from you.
WOW what a project. It looks like you are having a lot of fun.
Hi, Becky Joy: The best fun in the world! Thanks for stopping by.
It's great to see a shot of you at work. It looks like you're having a blast with this project. It's looking GREAT!

Hey, Don! Thanks so much for the positive feedback. Fun is not the word!
Your birdy looks fantastic! Thanks for including a photo of you beside it to give us a feel of how truly large it is.
Hi, Gwen. I'm cracking people up that I have to stand on a stool to paint the top. Thanks for stopping by!
Divine!
Hey, Leslie! I'm glad you like it!
