"Hot enough for ya??"
Here in Canada, we have about 9 months of winter, and then when summer finally arrives, it hits us with a vengeance (most years)! Then we all walk around asking each other...'Hot enough for ya?' Of course we stick in a few 'eh's here and there just to be true to our cultural roots...all this while carrying a cup of Tim Hortons coffee.
My garage studio is either too cold to paint in, or sweltering! Last week I think the heat got my brain but real good! I forgot to take a before photo of my tall dresser before I painted it. She was an okay looking piece from the get go. Dark brown 'okay' wood. Not mahogany or anything fancy, so I didn't hesitate to pull out the paint. She went from 'okay' to spectacular! She's really got nice feminine curves with a classic style, and the simple grey/white colour combo really brings her to life.
Bad angles, bad lighting, poor iPhone camera...all I can do is apologize!
I painted a gorgeous two tiered table in provence with gold wax detail, but didn't get a photo before I took it to the booth, and it was sold before I got there again...so no photo of that beauty.
My booth is filling up (slowly) and really sucking up a lot of time...but its so much fun!
Hope you are all having a great summer, and oh yeah...'Hot enough for ya, eh?'
Take care

Your weather sounds just like ours in northern MN. We are just entering our warm, muggy season. Not at all good for painting!
ReplyDeleteI love the pretty grey dresser! I'm glad you're having fun in your new shop. :)
