Dear Picture,
I will paint you.
Signed,
Caroline.
I think my medium of choice is oil.
Walking down the alley to my apartment, I came across a bunch of old windows stacked against the dumpster.
*Total Score* I thought. I would bring these home and use them as canvases.
Two weeks later, and not a drip of paint coated the glass.
Today after class I felt especially optimistic, as my teacher had complimented me very highly on my French.
So, I went out, bought some celebratory cheeses and a baguette, had a snack, and decided before my sieste I would take my first whack at oil painting.
Since it’s on glass it was pretty tricky, but taking into account it was my first try, I think it turned out pretty well!
