I recently painted this picture for above the fireplace. Inspired by a recent Pinterest find, I was determined to create one of my own.
Most of it was done free-hand. I did “cheat” and use a template for the heart, birds and bird house. I have received a ton of compliments on the painting and the best part is it was free.
I was able to recycle an old canvas, and with enough paint cover it up. The great thing about this type of project is, if you don’t like it, or change your mind, just paint over it.
The one piece of advice I can give you, is use a paint pen to create the heart and initials. This made the task much easier and provided me with uniform width letters.
