Thyme to meet FATHER SNOW

DO NOT PIN MY PHOTOS TO PINTEREST

Father Snow is a new design that I just completed for 

Painting With Friends!

I love to go junking for pieces to add to my 

painting "stash"

Old wood antique iron boards make

wonderful surfaces to paint on

I used a very LARGE stippler brush to paint the background

I leave some of the original background showing thru for a nice prim look!

I stenciled on some snow flakes for the background. 

To give your painting depth and dimension paint some of the snowflakes in a lighter shade. They will then appear to be in the distance.

Now the fun part!

Painting the design!

the 

SNOWMAN

 and now to paint

FATHER SNOW!

I love painting BEARDS and FUR!

They take a lot of patience!

Adding some fur and details!

And his face!

and 

a 

CANDY CANE!

The TWIG TREE and SNOWIES!

LOTS 

of

DIAMOND DUST

for

SPARKLE!

   

The

BALSAM Tree

even 

SPARKLES!

I even addded

 tiny BELLS

to

FATHER SNOW'S

shoes!

I also made some

FAUX SNOWBALLS

and

added a tutorial to make them in the pattern packet!

There is a lot of work that goes into a pattern packet

Painting instructions, line drawings and photos!

Typing is my LEAST favorite part of making a pattern packet

It ALWAYS helps to have a room with a view!!!

You may purchase the pattern packet for

FATHER SNOW

in my pattern shop

Happy Painting!
